In $YDSE$ with two identical slits,when the upper slit is covered with a transparent sheet of mica,the second-order minima is observed above the center of the screen and the second-order maxima below it. Which of the following cannot be a possible value of the phase difference caused by the mica sheet?

  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{7\pi}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{10\pi}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{11\pi}{3}$

$A$ mixture of light of wavelength $590 \, nm$ and an unknown wavelength is incident on the two slits of a Young's double-slit experiment. The central bright fringes of both lights coincide. The $3^{rd}$ bright fringe of the known wavelength coincides with the $4^{th}$ bright fringe of the unknown wavelength. Find the unknown wavelength in $nm$.

Young's double slit experiment is carried out by using green,red,and blue light,one color at a time. The fringe widths recorded are $\beta_G, \beta_R$,and $\beta_B$,respectively. Then:

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width is $0.6 \, mm$ for a wavelength of $4000 \, \mathring{A}$. If the experiment is performed in water,the fringe width becomes ... $mm$. (Refractive index of water $\mu = 1.33$,but assuming the standard physics problem context where $\mu = 1.5$ is often used for glass/water comparison,we will use the provided value $\mu = 1.5$ from the solution).

Two sources produce an interference pattern which is observed on a screen,at a distance $D$ from the sources. The fringe width is $2w$. If the distance $D$ is now doubled,the fringe width will be:

In a Young's double-slit experiment,$D$ is the distance of the screen from the slits and $d$ is the separation between the slits. The distance of the nearest point to the central maximum where the intensity is the same as that due to a single slit is equal to:
