PhysicsWave OpticsNEET 2019

In a double slit experiment, when light of wavelength 400 nm was used, the angular width of the first minima formed on a screen placed 1 m away, was found to be . What will be the angular width of the first minima, if the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water? ()

Answer: (2)

Solution

The angular fringe width is , which is proportional to the wavelength of light used. When the whole apparatus is immersed in water the wavelength becomes while the slit separation
