In a two slit experiment with monochromatic light fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the slits. If the screen is moved by 5 10⁻² ~m towards the slits, the change in fringe width is 3 10⁻⁵ ~m . If separation between the slits is 10⁻³ ~m , the wavelength of light used is
Options
- A6000 Å
- B5000 Å
- C3000 Å
- D4500 Å
Correct answer
A. 6000 Å
Step-by-step solution
