Answer» Correct Answer - a Condition for observing bright fringe is `2 nd = (m + (1)/(2)) lambda` `:. lambda = (2 nd)/((m + (1)/(2))) = (2 xx 1.5 xx 4 xx 10^(-5))/(m + (1)/(2))` `= (12 xx 10^(-5))/(m + (1)/(2))` The integer m that gives the wavelength in the visible region (`4000 Å` to `7000 Å`) is `m = 2`. In that case, `lambda = (12 xx 10^(-5))/(2 (1)/(2)) = 4.8 xx 10^(-5) = 4800 Å` |
