In biprism experiment, the wavelength is used to obtain an interference pattern. Then fringe width is W ₁ at distance D ₁ from the screen when the screen is moved towards biprism, fringe width becomes W ₂ at distance D ₂ The distance between two virtual images of the slit is
Options
- A(D₂-D₁ ) (W₁-w₂ )
- B( W ₁- W ₂ ) ( D ₁- D ₂ )
- C( W ₂- W ₁ ) ( D ₁- D ₂ )
- D( D ₁- D ₂ ) ( W ₁- W ₂ )
Correct answer
D. ( D ₁- D ₂ ) ( W ₁- W ₂ )
Step-by-step solution
Fringe width = D d W ₁= D ₁ ~d w ₂= D ₂ ~d aligned & w = w ₁- w ₂ & = d ( D ₁- D ₂ ) & d = ( D ₁- D ₂ ) ( w ₁- w ₂ ) aligned
