Two coherent sources ' P ' and ' Q ' produce interference at point ' A ' on the screen, where there is a dark band which is formed between 4^ th and 5^ th bright band. Wavelength of light used is 6000 Å . The path difference PA and QA is
Options
- A3.6 10⁻⁴ ~cm
- B3.2 10⁻⁴ ~cm
- C2.4 10⁻⁴ ~cm
- D2.7 10⁻⁴ ~cm
Correct answer
D. 2.7 10⁻⁴ ~cm
Step-by-step solution
The dark band between the 4^ th and 5^ th bright band in the 5^ th dark band. For 5^ th dark band, the path difference is (5- 1 2 ) =4.5 =4.5 6000=2.7 10⁻⁴ ~cm
