Calculate the wavelength of light used in an interference experiment from the following data: Fringe width . Distance between the slits and eyepiece through which the interference pattern is observed is . Distance between the images of the virtual source when a convex lens of focal length is used at a distance of from the eyepiece is .
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
Given: fringe with Distance between images of the source Image distance Object distance Using mirror formula, \begin{array}{l} \qquad \begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{60}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{16}\\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{u}=20 \mathrm{ cm} \end{array}\text{ Magnification, } \mathrm{m}=\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{u}}=\frac{80}{20}=4 \\ \text{ Magnification } \text{ Fringe width } \beta=\frac{\mathrm{D} \lambda}{\mathrm{d}} \end{array}\beta=\frac{100 \lambda}{0.2}=0.03 \times 10^{-2}\lambda=6000Ã…$
