Physics Question on Wave optics
In Young?s double slit experiment, to increase the fringe width
A
the wavelength of the source is increased
B
the source is moved towards the slit
C
the source is moved away from the slit
D
the slit separation is increased
Answer
the wavelength of the source is increased
Explanation
Solution
Increase the fringe width depend only the wavelength of the source is increased.
By Young's double slit experiment
W=dDλ
According to equation, the fringe width is directly proportional to λ
