JEE Main & Advanced Physics Wave Optics / तरंग प्रकाशिकी Question Bank Mock Test - Wave Optics

  • question_answer
    In a standard Young's double-slit experiment with coherent light of wavelength 600 nm, the fringe width of the fringes in the central region (near the central fringe,\[{{P}_{0}}\]) is observed to be 3 mm. An extremely thin glass plate ' is introduced in front of the first slit, and the fringes are observed to be displaced by 11 mm. Another thin plate is placed before the second slit and it is observed that the fringes are now displaced by an additional 12 mm. If the additional optical path lengths introduced are \[{{\Delta }_{1}}\] and \[{{\Delta }_{2}}\] then

    A) \[11{{\Delta }_{1}}=12{{\Delta }_{2}}\]           

    B) \[12{{\Delta }_{1}}=11{{\Delta }_{2}}\]

    C) \[11{{\Delta }_{1}}>12{{\Delta }_{2}}\]           

    D) None of the above

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[{{S}_{1}}=\frac{{{\Delta }_{1}}D}{d}=11\times {{10}^{-3}}\] \[{{S}_{2}}=\frac{{{\Delta }_{2}}D}{d}=12\times {{10}^{-3}}\]             \[\Rightarrow {{\Delta }_{1}}/{{\Delta }_{2}}=11/12\Rightarrow 12{{\Delta }_{1}}=11{{\Delta }_{2}}\]
