YDSE: Fringe Width & Fringe Positions

The ratio of the distance of nnth bright band and mmth dark band from the central bright band in an interference pattern is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. nnth bright: y=nβy = n\beta; mmth dark: y=(m−12)βy = \left(m - \frac{1}{2}\right)\beta
  2. Ratio =n:(m−12)= n : \left(m - \frac{1}{2}\right)
  3. So the answer is (c).
