In an interference experiment, the spacing between successive maxima or minima is
- A \(\lambda d / D\)
- B \(\lambda D / d\)
- C \(d D / \lambda\)
- D \(\lambda d / 4 D\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\lambda D / d\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In an interference experiment the spacing between successive maxima and minima is called the fringe width and is given by
\(
\beta=D \lambda / d
\)
\(
\beta=D \lambda / d
\)
