In Young's double slit experiment, an electron beam is used to produce interference fringes of width ₁ . Now the electron beam is replaced by a beam of protons with the same experimental set-up and same speed. The fringe width obtained is ₂ . The correct relation between ₁ and ₂ is
Options
- A₁= ₂
- BNo fringes are formed
- C₁ ₂
- D₁ ₂
Correct answer
D. ₁ ₂
Step-by-step solution
In Young's double slit experiment triangle = D d ₂ ₁ = ₂ ₁ ....(i) ₂ ₁ 1 ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get ₂ ₁ 1 ₂ ₁
