On replacing a thin film of mica of thickness 12 10⁻⁵ ~cm in the path of one of the interfering beams in Young's double slit experiment using monochromatic light, the fringe pattern shifts through a distance equal to the width of bright fringe. If =6 10⁻⁵ ~cm , the refractive index of mica is
Options
- A1.1
- B1.3
- C1.5
- D1.4
Correct answer
C. 1.5
Step-by-step solution
The equation for the shift in the fringe pattern is given as, n =( -1) t Refractive index of mica is: array ll & = n t +1 & = 1 6 10⁻⁵ 12 10⁻⁵ +1=0.5+1 & =1.5 array
