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) x(Blue)x(Green)=54604360

In Young's experiment, light of wavelength \(4000~\mathring{A}\) is used to produce bright fringes of width \(0.6\) mm, at a distance of \(2\) meters. If the whole apparatus is dipped in a liquid of refractive index \(1.5\), then fringe width will be:
1. \(0.2~\text{mm}\)
2. \(0.3~\text{mm}\)
3. \(0.4~\text{mm}\)
4. \(1.2~\text{mm}\)

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. \(4I_0\)
