Optics Question 1135

Question: In Young’s double-slit experiment, an interference pattern is obtained on a screen by a light of wavelength 6000AA , coming from the coherent sources S1 and S2. At certain point P on the screen third dark fringe is formed. Then the path difference S1P ? S2P in microns is

[EAMCET 2003]

Options:

A) 0.75

B) 1.5

C) 3.0

D) 4.5

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

For dark fringe at P S1PS2P=Δ=(2n1)λ/2 .

Here n =3 and l = 6000 So, Δ=5λ2=5×60002=15000AA=1.5 micron
