YDSE: Fringe Width & Fringe Positions

In Young's double slit experiment, if the separation between coherent sources is halved and the distance of the screen from the coherent sources is doubled, then the fringe width becomes:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. β=λDd\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}
  2. β′=λ(2D)d/2=4β\beta' = \frac{\lambda (2D)}{d/2} = 4\beta
  3. So the answer is (b) four times.
