In a Young's double slit experiment, a laser light of 560nm560nm produces an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of 7.2mm7 . 2mm. Now another light is used to produce an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of 8.1mm8 . 1mm. The wavelength of second light is _____ nm.nm .

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given here: λ1=560×10−9m{\lambda}_{1} = 560 \times {10}^{- 9}m, β1=7.2×10−3m{\beta}_{1} = 7 . 2 \times {10}^{- 3}m and β2=8.1×10−3m{\beta}_{2} = 8 . 1 \times {10}^{- 3}m.

Let dd be the width and DD be the distance between slit and screen then fringe width, β=\lambdaDd\beta = \dfrac{\lambdaD}{d}.

Thus, from above, β∝λ\beta ∝ \lambda

So, the wavelength of second light is λ2=β2β1λ1=98λ1{\lambda}_{2} = \dfrac{{\beta}_{2}}{{\beta}_{1}}{\lambda}_{1} = \dfrac{9}{8}{\lambda}_{1}

∴λ2=98×560=630nm.∴ {\lambda}_{2} = \dfrac{9}{8} \times 560 = 630nm .
