Ray diverging from a point source forms a wavefront that is:
1. cylindrical.
2. spherical.
3. plane.
4. cubical.
In Young's double slit experiment, if the slit widths are in the ratio \(1:9,\) then the ratio of the intensity at minima to that at maxima will be:
1. \(1\)
2. \(1/9\)
3. \(1/4\)
4. \(1/3\)
The Young's experiment is performed with the lights of blue (λ = 4360 Å) and green colour (λ = 5460 Å), If the distance of the 4th fringe from the centre is x, then
(1) x (Blue) = x (Green)
(2) x (Blue) > x (Green)
(3) x (Blue) < x (Green)
(4)
In Young's double slit experiment, if L is the distance between the slits and the screen upon which interference pattern is observed, x is the average distance between the adjacent fringes and d being the slit separation. The wavelength of light is given by
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
In two separate set-ups of the Young's double slit experiment, fringes of equal width are observed when lights of wavelengths in the ratio \(1:2\) are used. If the ratio of the slit separation in the two cases is \(2:1\), the ratio of the distances between the plane of the slits and the screen in the two set-ups is:
1. \(4:1\)
2. \(1:1\)
3. \(1:4\)
4. \(2:1\)
The slits in Young's double-slit experiment have equal widths and the source is placed symmetrically relative to the slits. The intensity at the central fringe is \(I_0\). If one of the slits is closed, the intensity at this point will be:
1. \(I_0\)
2. \(\frac{I_0}{4}\)
3. \(\frac{I_0}{2}\)
4. \(4I_0\)
In Young's double slit experiment, 62 fringes are seen in visible region for sodium light of wavelength 5893 Å. If violet light of wavelength 4358 Å is used in place of sodium light, then number of fringes seen will be
(1) 54
(2) 64
(3) 74
(4) 84
In Young's double slit experiment, the distance between the two slits is 0.1 mm and the wavelength of light used is 4×10–7 m. If the width of the fringe on the screen is 4 mm, the distance between screen and slit is
(1) 0.1 mm
(2) 1 cm
(3) 0.1 cm
(4) 1 m
In Young's double slit experiment using sodium light (λ = 5898 Å), 92 fringes are seen. If given colour (λ = 5461 Å) is used, how many fringes will be seen
(1) 62
(2) 67
(3) 85

A slit of width a is illuminated by white light. For red light (λ = 6500 Å), the first minima is obtained at θ = 30°. Then the value of a will be
