Question

In Young’s double-slit experiment, the slits are illuminated by monochromatic light. The entire set-up is immersed in pure water. Which of the following act cannot restore the original fringe width?

Solution

Correct option is

Introducing a thin transparent slab in front of one of the slits.

 

  

We need to increase β ⇒ D increases; d decreases.
