YDSE: Fringe Width & Fringe Positions

In Young's double slit experiment the separation between the slits is doubled without changing other setting of the experiment to obtain same fringe width, the distance 'D' of the screen from slit should be made

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. β=λDd\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} must stay the same, so D∝dD \propto d.
  2. d→2dd \to 2d needs D→2DD \to 2D.
  3. So the answer is (c) 2D2D.
