Biprism, Thin Films & Other Devices

In two separate setups for Biprism experiment using same wavelength, fringes of equal width are obtained. If ratio of slit separation is 2:32 : 3 then the ratio of the distance between the slit and screen in the two setups is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. β=λDd\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}; same β\beta and λ\lambda gives D∝dD \propto d.
  2. D1D2=d1d2=23\frac{D_1}{D_2} = \frac{d_1}{d_2} = \frac{2}{3}.
  3. So the answer is (a) 2:32 : 3.
