Using Young's double slit experiment, a monochromatic light of wavelength 5000Å5000 Å produces fringes of fringe width 0.5mm0 . 5mm. If another monochromatic light of wavelength 6000Å6000 Å is used and the separation between the slits is doubled, then the new fringe width will be

Options

  1. A0.5mm0 . 5mm
  2. B1.0mm1 . 0mm
  3. C0.6mm0 . 6mm
  4. D0.3mm0 . 3mm

Correct answer

D. 0.3mm0 . 3mm

Step-by-step solution

We know that fringe width is given by, β=\lambdaDd\beta = \dfrac{\lambdaD}{d}

⇒β′β=λ′λ×dd′=60005000×d2d⇒ \dfrac{{\beta}^{'}}{\beta} = \dfrac{{\lambda}^{'}}{\lambda} \times \dfrac{d}{{d}^{'}} = \dfrac{6000}{5000} \times \dfrac{d}{2d}

⇒β′=65×2×0.5⇒ {\beta}^{'} = \dfrac{6}{5 \times 2} \times 0 . 5=0.3mm= 0 . 3mm
