Question

An interference experiment is performed with monochromatic (one color) laser light. The separation between the slits is 0.600 mm, and the screen is located 7.44 m from the slits. The first bright fringe is located 4.64 mm from the center of the interference pattern. What is the wavelength of the laser light (in nm)?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

The distance between the slits = 0.600 mm =6×10-4

The location of screen from the slits = 7.44 m 

The Location of bright fringe = 4.64 mm=4.64×10-3

Step 2

On using the relation for the bright fringe as follows,

yn=nλDd

Where,

d  = The distance between slits

n  = The number of interference

λ  = The Wavelength

D  = The distance of screen from slit 

yn =  The distance of bright fringe
