| 20. In Young's double slit experiment, the intensity at a point is 75% of maximum intensity. What is the smallest distance of this point from the central fringe? Given d = 0.1mm, D = 1m and l = 600 nm. |
| |
| Suggested solution: |
| |
| The intensity I at a point on the screen where the two disturbances arrive having a phase difference s is |
| |
 |
| |
| I = 0.751max Therefore, |
| |
 |
| |
 |
| |
| Let x be the minimum distance of this point from the central fringe. |
| |
| Then, |
