In a Young's double slit experiment,each of the two slits $A$ and $B$,as shown in the figure,are oscillating about their fixed center with a mean separation of $0.8 \ mm$. The distance between the slits at time $t$ is given by $d = (0.8 + 0.04 \sin \omega t) \ mm$,where $\omega = 0.08 \ rad \ s^{-1}$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $1 \ m$ and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is $6000 \ \mathring A$. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time,while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point $O$.
$(1)$ The $8^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe above the point $O$ oscillates with time between two extreme positions. The separation between these two extreme positions,in micrometer $(\mu m)$,is. . . . .
$(2)$ The maximum speed in $\mu m/s$ at which the $8^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe will move is. . . . .

  • A
    $601.50, 24$
  • B
    $601.50, 28$
  • C
    $601.50, 30$
  • D
    $601.50, 35$

In a double slit experiment, the distance between the slits is $0.1 \ cm$ and the screen is placed at $50 \ cm$ from the slits plane. When one slit is covered with a transparent sheet having thickness $t$ and refractive index $n = 1.5$, the central fringe shifts by $0.2 \ cm$. The value of $t$ is . . . . . . $cm$.

In $YDSE$,the source $S$ placed symmetrically with respect to the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ is now moved parallel to the plane of the slits so that it is closer to the upper slit $S_1$,as shown. Then,

When one of the slits in Young's experiment is covered with a transparent sheet of thickness $3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ cm$,the central fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the $30^{th}$ bright fringe. If $\lambda = 6000 \ \mathring{A}$,then what is the refractive index of the sheet?

$A$ monochromatic beam of light falls on a $YDSE$ apparatus at an angle $\theta$ as shown in the figure. $A$ thin sheet of glass of thickness $t$ and refractive index $\mu$ is inserted in front of the lower slit $S_2$. The central bright fringe (path difference $= 0$) will be obtained:
