Question:

A double slit experiment is immersed in a liquid of refractive index 1.33. Separation between the slits is 1.0 mm and he distance between slit and screen is 1.33 m. If slits are illuminated by a parallel beam of light whose wavelength is 6300 Å, then fringe width will be

Options:

6.3 mm

63 mm

0.63 mm

None of these

Correct Answer:

0.63 mm

Explanation:

$λt=\frac{λ_{air}}{μl}$

$β=\frac{λD}{d}$, in liquid $β=\frac{λ_1D}{d}=\frac{λ_{air}D}{μld}$

$=\frac{6300×10^{10}×1.33}{1.33×10^{-3}}=0.63mm$
