JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 10. Wave optics
In two separate Young's double-slit experimental set-ups, two monochromatic light sources of different wavelengths are used to get fringes of equal width. The ratios of the slit separations and that of the wavelengths of light used are \(2: 1\) and \(1: 2\) respectively. The corresponding ratio of the distances between the slits and the respective screens ( \(D_1 / D_2\) ) is ___________ .
- A 1
- B 2
- C 4
- D 8
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 4
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\beta_1=\beta_2\) \(\frac{ D _1 \lambda_1}{d_1}=\frac{ D _2 \lambda_2}{d_2}\) \(\frac{ D _1}{ D _2}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}\left(\frac{d_1}{d_2}\right)\) \(=2 \times 2\) \(\frac{ D _1}{ D _2}=4\)

- A light ray is incident, at an incident angle \(\theta_{1}\), on the system of two plane mirrors \(M_{1}\) and \(M_{2}\) having an inclination angle \(75^{\circ}\) between them (as shown in figure). After reflecting from mirror \(M_{1}\) it gets reflected back by the mirror \(M _{2}\) with an angle of reflection \(30^{\circ}\). The total deviation of the ray will be \(\dots\) degree.
