    In Youngs double slit experiment, the spacing between the slits is d and wavelength of light used is \[\text{6000}\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\].If the angular width of a fringe formed on a distance screen is \[1{}^\circ \], then value of \[d\] is

    A)  1 mm           

    B)  0.05 mm

    C)  0.03mm        

    D)  0.01 mm  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Here,  \[\sin \theta =\left( \frac{Y}{D} \right)\] So,  \[\Delta \theta =\frac{\Delta Y}{D}\] Angular fringe width \[{{\theta }_{0}}=\Delta \theta \](width \[\Delta Y=\beta \]) \[{{\theta }_{0}}=\frac{\beta }{D}=\frac{D\lambda }{d}\times \frac{1}{D}=\frac{\lambda }{d}\] \[{{\theta }_{0}}={{1}^{o}}=\pi /180\] rad and \[\lambda =6\times {{10}^{-7}}m\] \[d=\frac{\lambda }{{{\theta }_{0}}}=\frac{180}{\pi }\times 6\times {{10}^{-7}}\] \[=3.44\times {{10}^{-5}}m=0.03m\]
