if separation between the two slits is increased till fringes are observed then what will happen to angular separation of fringes
(my thought is here fringes are not observed and they are increasing till fringes show up ...so until then what will happen to angular width if we increase d-slit separation..does angular width increases or remains same

Expert Answer:
we know , we observe interference pattern if the following condition is satisfied
d sinθ = n λ
where d is distance between slits, θ is angular position of bright fringe , n is integer and λ is wavelength.
Angular position is obtained from above expression as
sinθ ≈ θ = ( n λ ) / d
We see that from above expression , angular position θ decreases as d increases for same n-th fringe

- coherent sources
- two coherent lights with of intensity 5 into 10 to power per to permit your each superimpose and produce the interference pattern on a screen at a point where the path difference between the wave is Lambda divided by 6 where Lambda is the wavelength of the wave find the first phase difference between wave second resultant intensity at the point
- We for equal wave intensities the intensity at a point is given by
but where does the formula
come from??
- Question 15
- kindly answer
- kindly provide answer pl
- In young double slit experiment, slit with ratio is 3:2 then find out the ratio of the maximum and minimum intensity of interference of light.
- How is phase difference related to path difference?
- In Young's double slit experiment, the distance between the slit is kept smaller than the wavelength of the light. What is the effect?
