In YDSE, light of wavelength `lamda = 5000 Å` is used, which emerges in phase from two a slits distance `d = 3 xx 10^(-7) m` apart. A transparent sheet of thickness `t = 1.5 xx 106(-7) m`, refractive indes `n = 1.17`, is placed over one of the slits. Where does the central maxima of the interference now appear from the center of the screen? (Find the value of y?) A. `(D(mu - 1)t)/(2d)`B. `(2D(mu - 1)t)/(d)`C. `(D(mu + 1)t)/(d)`D. `(D(mu - 1)t)/(d)`

Answer» Correct Answer - d
The path difference intorduced due to introduction of transparent sheet is given by `Delta x = (m - 1)t`.
If the central maxima occupies position of nth fringe, then
`(mu - 1)t = n lambda = d sin theta`
`implies sin theta ((mu-1) t)/(d) = ((1.17 - 1) xx 1.5 xx 10^(-7))/(3 xx 10^(-7))`
`=0.085`
Hence, the angular position of central maxima is
`theta = sin^(-1) (0.085)= 4.88^(@)`
For small angles,
`sin theta = theta = tan theta`
`implies tan theta = (y)/(D)`
`:. (y)/(D) = ((mu - 1) t)/(d)`
Shift of central maxima is
`y = (D(mu- 1) t)/(d)`
This formula can be used if D is given.

Three waves of equal frequency having amplitudes `10mum`, `4mum`, `7mum` arrive at a given point with successive phase difference of `pi//2`, the amplitude of the resulting wave in `mum` is given byA. (a) `4`B. (b) `5`C. (c) `6`D. (d) `7`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
The amplitudes of the waves are
`a_1=10mum`, `a_2=4mum` and `a_3=7mum`
and the phase difference between 1st and 2nd wave is `pi/2` and that between 2nd and 3rd wave is `pi/2`. Therefore, phase difference between 1st and 3rd is `pi`. Combining 1st with 3rd, their resultant amplitude is given by
`A_1^2=a_1^2+a_3^2+2a_1a_3cos varphi`
or `A_1=sqrt(10^2+7^2+2xx10xx7cos pi)`
`=sqrt(100+49-140)`
`=sqrt9=3mum` in the direction of first.
Now combining this with 2nd wave we have, the resultant amplitude
`A^2=A_1^2+a_2^2+2A_1a_2cospi/2`
or `A=sqrt(3^2+4^2+2xx3xx4cos 90^@)=sqrt(9+16)`
`=5mum`

Answer» Correct Answer - d
At the area of total darkness, minima will occur for both the wavelengths.
`:. ((2n - 1))/(2) lambda_(1) = ((2m + 1))/(2) lambda_(2)`
`implies (2n - 1) lambda_(1) = (2 m+ 1) lambda_(2)`
or ` ((2n + 1))/((2 m + 1)) = (560)/(400) = (7)/(5)`
or `10 n = 14 m + 2`
By inspection: For `m= 2, n = 3`. For `m = 7, n = 10`. The distance between then will be the distance between such point, i.e.,
`Delta s = (D lambda_(1))/(d) {((2n_(2) + 1) - (2n_(1) + 1))/(2)}`
Putting `n_(2) = 10` and `n_(1) - 3` and solving, we get `Delta x = 28` mm.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
We know that
That maximum intensity `I_(max)=(sqrt(I_(1))+sqrt(I_(2)))^(2).....(i)`
The minimum intensity `I_(min)=(sqrt(I_(1))-sqrt(I_(2)))^(2) ....(ii)`
So, the ratio of the maximum and minimum intensities is

Answer» Correct Answer - 10 mm , 12.2 mm

Given, 15th bright β = 6 mm

β = \(\frac{\lambda D}d\) 

6 mm = \(\frac{15D\lambda}{d}\) 

\(\frac{\lambda D}d=\frac6{15}\)

(i) 25th bright band

β = \(\frac{n \lambda D}d\) 

β = \(\frac{25\lambda D}d\) (\(\because\) n = 25)

\(\because \frac{\lambda D}d=\frac6{15}\)

β = \(\frac{25\lambda D}d\) 

β = 25 x \(\frac6{15}\) 

β = 30/3

β = 10 mm

fringe width for dark band

β = (2n + 1)\(\frac{\lambda D}d\)

fringe = (2 x 31 + 1) \(\frac{\lambda D}d\)

β = 63\(\frac{\lambda D}d\)

β = 63 x \(\frac6{15}\) 

β = 25.2 mm
