(N/A) In Young's Double Slit Experiment,the distance between two consecutive bright fringes or two consecutive dark fringes is known as the fringe width,denoted by $\beta$.
The formula for fringe width is given by:
$\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}$
Where:
- $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the monochromatic light used.
- $D$ is the distance between the slits and the screen.
- $d$ is the distance between the two slits.

Two slits are made one millimetre apart and the screen is placed one metre away. What is the fringe separation (in $mm$) when blue-green light of wavelength $500 \; nm$ is used?

In Young's double-slit experiment,using light of wavelength $\lambda = 5890 \ \mathring{A}$,the angular width of the fringe is $0.20^\circ$. To increase the angular width by $10\%$,the wavelength must be increased by .......... $\mathring{A}$.

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the distance between the two sources is $0.1 / \pi \, mm$. The distance between the source and the screen is $25 \, cm$. The wavelength of light is $5000 \, \mathring{A}$. The angular position of the first dark fringe is ........$^o$.

Sodium light $(\lambda = 6 \times 10^{-7} \ m)$ is used to produce an interference pattern. The observed fringe width is $0.12 \ mm$. The angle between the two wave trains is:

In a Young's double-slit experiment,interference is obtained using electron waves. The electrons are produced by an electron gun. To increase the fringe width,one must:
