Q140 / 155 · WBJEE 2025 · Physics
A single slit diffraction pattern is obtained using a beam of red light. If red light is replaced by blue light then
- Athe diffraction pattern will disappear
- Correct answerBfringes will become narrower and crowded together
- Cfringes will become broader and will be further apart
- Dthere is no change in the diffraction pattern
Solution
Fringe width $\propto \lambda \therefore$ Fringes will be narrower and crowed.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
