Young's double slit experiment is carried out by using green, red and blue light, one color at a time. The fringe widths recorded are \(\beta_{G}, \beta_{R}\) and \(\beta_{B}\), respectively. Then,

  1. A \(\beta_{G}>\beta_{B}>\beta_{R}\)
  2. B \(\beta_{B}>\beta_{G}>\beta_{R}\)
  3. C \(\beta_{R}>\beta_{B}>\beta_{G}\)
  4. D \(\beta_{R}>\beta_{G}>\beta_{B}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\beta_{R}>\beta_{G}>\beta_{B}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that fringe width, \(\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}\) \(\because \quad \lambda_{R}>\lambda_{\mathrm{G}}>\lambda_{B} \quad \therefore \beta_{R}>\beta_{G}>\beta_{B}\)
