Optics Question 853

Question: Interference fringes were produced using white light in a double slit arrangement. When a mica sheet of uniform thickness of refractive index 1.6 (relative to air) is placed in the path of light from one of the slits, the central fringe moves through some a distance. This distance is equal to the width of 30 interference bands if light of wavelength is used. The thickness (inμm) of mica is

Options:

A) 90

B) 12

C) 14

D) 24

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] Shift of fringe pattern =(μ1)tDd

30D(4800×1010)d=(0.6)tDd

30×4800×1010=0.6t

t=30×4800×10100.6=1.44×1050.6=24×106
