Question

In Young’s double-slit experiment, the y-co-ordinates of central maxima and 10th maxima are 2 cm and 5 cm, respectively. When the YDSE apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index 1.5, the correspondingy-co-ordinates will be   

Solution

Correct option is

2 cm, 4 cm

Fringe width, . Therefore, λ and hence β will decrease 1.5 times when immersed in the liquid. The distance between central maxima and 10th maxima is 3 cm in vacuum. When immersed in the liquid, it will reduce to 2 cm. Position of central maxima will not change while 10th maxima will be obtained at y = 4 cm.
