In young's double slit experiment performed using a monochromatic light of wavelength \(\lambda\), when a glass plate \((\mu=1.5)\) of thickness \(x \lambda\) is introduced in the path of the one of the interfering beams, the intensity at the position where the central maximum occurred previously remains unchanged. The value of \(x\) will be..........
- A \(3\)
- B \(2\)
- C \(1.5\)
- D \(0.5\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Path difference at \(O =(\mu-1) t\). If the intensity at \(O\) remains (maximum) unchanged, path difference must be \(n \lambda\). \(\Rightarrow(\mu-1) t = n \lambda\) \((1.5-1) x \lambda= n \lambda\) \(\Rightarrow x =2 n\) For \(n =1, x =2\)
