A Young's double slit experiment apparatus has slits separated by 0.2 mm and a screen 60 cm away from the slits. The whole apparatus is immersed in a liquid medium of refractive index 119 and the slits are illuminated with green light (λ=550 nm in vacuum). Find the fringe width of the pattern formed on the screen.

  1. A 0.95mm
  2. B 1.25mm
  3. C 1.35mm
  4. D 1.45mm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 1.35mm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When a light wave enters a medium of refractive index μ, its wavelength becomes λ'=λμ. Fringe width in YDSE is given by β=λ'Dd=550×10-9×60×10-2119×2×10-4=1.35 mm.
