If the screen is moved away from the plane of the slits in a Young's double slit experiment, then the: (a) linear separation of the fringes decreases (b) angular separation of the fringes increases (c) angular separation of the fringes decreases (d) linear separation of the fringes increase

Answer: (d). Linear fringe width β = (λ D)/(d) increases with D. Angular fringe width θ = (λ)/(d) does not depend on D. So the answer is (d).
