In a double slit experiment,the angular width of a fringe is found to be $0.2^{\circ}$ on a screen placed $1\, m$ away. The wavelength of light used is $600\, nm$. What will be the angular width of the fringe if the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water (in $^{\circ}$)? Take the refractive index of water to be $4/3$.

In a $YDSE$,if the slits are of unequal width:

In a Young's double slit experiment, the slits are separated by $0.3 \, mm$ and the screen is $1.5 \, m$ away from the plane of slits. The distance between the fourth bright fringes on both sides of the central bright fringe is $2.4 \, cm$. The frequency of light used is $.......... \times 10^{14} \, Hz$.

In Young's double-slit experiment,the slits are separated by $0.2 \, cm$ and illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda = 5896 \, \mathring{A}$. What is the fringe width on a screen placed $1 \, m$ away from the plane of the slits? What will be the fringe width if the entire system is immersed in water (in $, mm$)? (Refractive index of water $\mu_w = 4/3$)

In Young's double slit experiment,the two slits act as coherent sources of equal amplitude $A$ and wavelength $\lambda$. In another experiment with the same setup,the two slits are of equal amplitude $A$ and wavelength $\lambda$ but are incoherent. The ratio of the intensity of light at the mid-point of the screen in the first case to that in the second case is

Assertion: In Young's double slit experiment,if the wavelength of incident monochromatic light is doubled,the number of bright fringes on the screen will increase.
Reason: The maximum number of bright fringes on the screen is directly proportional to the wavelength of light used.
