Q67 / 80 · NEST (NISER) 2024 (Session 2) · Physics

Consider a Young double slit experiment with pinholes at coordinates $(0,0, a)$ and $(0,0,-a)$ and a screen at $y=h$. When a light of wavelength $\lambda$ is used, the shape of the second bright fringe is a hyperbola with eccentricity

  • Correct answer
    A
    $a / \lambda$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $a h / \lambda^2$
  • D
    $2 a / \lambda$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
