In a double slit experiment with monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the plane of slits. If the screen is moved by 5×10−2m5 \times {10}^{- 2}m towards the slits, the change in fringe width is 3×10−3cm3 \times {10}^{- 3}cm. If the distance between the slits is 1mm1mm, then the wavelength of the light will be____nmnm.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

We know that the fringe width in YDSE is β=\lambdaDd\beta = \dfrac{\lambdaD}{d}

⇒Δβ=λd\DeltaD⇒ \Delta\beta = \dfrac{\lambda}{d}\DeltaD

⇒λ=(Δβ)d\DeltaD=3×10−3×10−2×10−35×10−2=6×10−7m=600nm⇒ \lambda = \dfrac{\left(\Delta\beta\right)d}{\DeltaD} = \dfrac{3 \times {10}^{- 3} \times {10}^{- 2} \times {10}^{- 3}}{5 \times {10}^{- 2}} = 6 \times {10}^{- 7}m = 600nm
