In young's double slit experiment, the separation between slits is trippled and distance between the slits is made one third. The fringe width is

Options:

three times

one- third

unchanged

none of the above

Correct Answer:

none of the above

Explanation:

$β=\frac{λD}{d}$

$∵β'=\frac{λ(D/3)}{3d}=\frac{λD}{d}.\frac{1}{9}$

Thus, the fringe width becomes one ninth.
