In a Young's double slit experiment, interference fringes were produced on a screen placed 1.8 m from the two slits 0.3 mm apart and illuminated by light of wavelength 600 nm. The fringe width is

  1. A 0.9 mm
  2. B 1.0 mm
  3. C 3.6 mm
  4. D 7.2 mm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3.6 mm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Fringe width \( \beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} \) \( \beta = \frac{(600 \times 10^{-9} \text{ m}) \times (1.8 \text{ m})}{0.3 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}} \) \( \beta = 3.6 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m} = 3.6 \text{ mm} \)
