  1. In Young’s double slit experiment, the separation between the slits is halved and the distance between the slits and the screen is doubled. The fringe width is

$(1981,2 M)$

(a) unchanged

(b) halved

(c) doubled

(d) quadrupled

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 147.(d)

Solution:

Formula:

YDSE:

  1. $\omega=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

$d$ is halved and $D$ is doubled

$\therefore$ Fringe width $\omega$ will become four times.

$\therefore$ Correct option is $(d)$.
