In Young's double slit experiment,a glass plate is placed before one slit which absorbs half the intensity of light. Under this case:

  • A
    The brightness of fringes decreases
  • B
    The fringe width decreases
  • C
    No fringes will be observed
  • D
    The bright fringes become fainter and the dark fringes have finite light intensity

In a double-slit experiment,green light $(5303\,\mathring{A})$ falls on a double slit having a separation of $19.44\,\mu m$ and a width of $4.05\,\mu m$. The number of bright fringes between the first and the second diffraction minima is

The slits in a double-slit interference experiment are illuminated by orange light $(\lambda = 600 \ nm)$. $A$ thin transparent plastic sheet of thickness $t$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The number of fringes $(N)$ shifting on the screen is plotted versus the refractive index $\mu$ of the plastic in the graph shown. The value of $t$ is
