Question 6

A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths, 650 nm and 520 nm, is used to obtain interference fringes in a Young’s double-slit experiment.

(a) Find the distance of the third bright fringe on the screen from the central maximum for wavelength 650 nm.

(b) What is the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide?

Answer

Given that,

Wavelength of the light beam, λ1 = 650 nm

Wavelength of another light beam, λ2 = 520 nm

Distance of the slits from the screen= D

Distance between the two slits = d

(a) distance of the third bright fringe on the screen from the central maximum

Distance of the n th bright fringe on the screen from the central maximum is given by the relation, x = nλ1 (D/d)

For third bright fringe, n = 3

∴ x = 3 x 650 D/d = 1950 (D/d) nm

(b) Least distance from the central maximum

Let the n th bright fringe due to wavelength, λ2 and (n − 1)th bright fringe due to wavelength coincide on the screen. We can equate the conditions for bright fringes as:

nλ2 = (n - 1) λ1

520n = 650n - 650

650 = 130n

∴ n = 5

Hence, the least distance from the central maximum can be obtained by the relation:

x = nλ2 D/d = 5 x 520 D/d = 2600 D/d nm
