In an interference experiment, the two slits are 1 mm apart and the screen is placed 1 m away from the slits.
The width of a bright fringe for the light of wavelength 500 nm is

  1. A 0.25 mm
  2. B 5.0 mm
  3. C 0.5 mm
  4. D 2.5 mm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 0.5 mm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} \) \( \beta = \frac{(500 \times 10^{-9} \text{ m})(1 \text{ m})}{1 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}} \) \( \beta = 0.5 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m} = 0.5 \text{ mm} \)
