In a biprism experiment,the $6^{\text{th}}$ bright band with wavelength $\lambda_1$ coincides with the $7^{\text{th}}$ dark band with wavelength $\lambda_2$. Then the ratio $\lambda_1 : \lambda_2$ is (other settings remain the same):

  • A
    $7$ : $6$
  • B
    $13$ : $12$
  • C
    $12$ : $13$
  • D
    $6$ : $7$

When white light is incident normally on an oil film of thickness $10^{-4} \,cm$ and refractive index $1.4$,the wavelength which will not be seen in the reflected system of light is ........... $\mathring{A}$.

Assertion: Newton's rings are formed in the reflected system when the space between the lens and the glass plate is filled with a liquid of refractive index greater than that of glass; the central spot of the pattern is bright.
Reason: This is because the reflection in these cases will be from a denser to rarer medium and the two interfering rays are reflected under similar conditions.
