Biprism, Thin Films & Other Devices

In biprims experiment, the 44th dark band is formed opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light used is (d=(d = distance between the slits, D=D = distance between scource and the screen)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Point opposite a slit: y=d2y = \frac{d}{2}, path difference =d22D= \frac{d^2}{2D}.
  2. 4th dark band: d22D=7λ2\frac{d^2}{2D} = \frac{7\lambda}{2}.
  3. λ=d27D\lambda = \frac{d^2}{7D}. So the answer is (b).
