In a double-slit experiment the angular width of a fringe is found to be 0.2^(0) on a screen placed 1 m away. The wavelenght of light used is 600 nm. What will be the angular width of the fringe if the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water? Take refractive index of water to be 4"/"3.

Answer»

SOLUTION :ANGULAR fringe separation,
`THETA= (LAMBDA)/(d)" or "d=(lambda)/(theta)""" In water, "d= (lambda.)/(theta.)`
`therefore (lambda)/(theta)=(lambda.)/(theta.)" or "(theta.)/(theta)=(lambda.)/(lambda)= (1)/(mu)=(3)/(4)` or
`theta.= (3)/(4)theta= (3)/(4)xx 0.2^(0)= 0.15^(0)`.
