2. The angular width of the central maximum of the diffraction pattern will increase

3. The angular width of the central maximum will decrease

4. The angular width of the central maximum will be unaffected

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. \(2:1\)
