Let S1 and S2 be the two slits in Young's double-slit experiment. If central maxima is observed at P and angle S1PS2=θ, then the fringe width for the light of wavelength λ will be (assume θ to be a small angle)

1. λ/θ

2. λθ

3. 2λ/θ

4. λ/2θ

When unpolarized light beam is incident from air onto glass (n=1.5) at the polarizing angle:

1. Reflected beam is polarized 100 percent

2. Reflected and refracted beams are partially polarized

3. The reason for (1) is that almost all the light is reflected 

4. All of the above
