In a Young's double slit experiment, the slit separation is and the screen distance is A parallel beam of light of wavelength is incident on the slits at angle as shown in figure. On the screen, the point is equidistant from the slits and distance is Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?

- A For degree, there will be destructive interference at point
- B Fringe spacing depends on
- C For degree, there will be destructive interference at point
- D For there will be constructive interference at point
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) For degree, there will be destructive interference at point
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Path difference at ,
and
Constructive interference is incorrect
Fringe width does not depend on is incorrect
\(\text{(C) }\Delta x=0.3\text{ mm} \times \frac{0.36}{\pi} \times \frac{\pi}{180}+\frac{0.3\text{ mm} \times 11\text{ mm}}{1000}\) \(=39 \times 10^{-4}\text{ mm}\)
Now,
Destructive interference happened correct
(D) \(\alpha=0 \therefore \Delta x=d y / D=\frac{0.3 \times 11}{1000}=33\) \(\times ~10^{-4}\text{ mm}\)
in terms of
as
There will be destructive interference. is incorrect.

The mass of a nucleus \({ }_{Z}^{A} X\) is less than the sum of the masses of \((A-Z)\) number of neutrons and \(Z\) number of protons in the nucleus. The energy equivalent to the corresponding mass difference is known as the binding energy of the nucleus. A heavy nucleus of mass \(M\) can break into two light nuclei of masses \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\) only if \(\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) \lt M\). Also two light nuclei of masses \(m_{3}\) and \(m_{4}\) can undergo complete fusion and form a heavy nucleus of mass \(M^{\prime}\) only if \(\left(m_{3}+m_{4}\right) \gt M^{\prime}\). The masses of some neutral atoms are given in the table below:
