  4. D Frequency of light used
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Distance between slit and source

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Angular width of central maxima is given by, \(\mathrm{Q}=2 \lambda \mathrm{a}\) Where, \(\lambda=\) Wavelength \(\mathrm{a}=\) Width of slit, It does not depend on distance between slit and source.
