Q65 / 90 · JEE Main 2016 (09 Apr Online) · Physics
In Young's double-slit experiment, the distance between slits and the screen is and monochromatic light of wavelength is being used. A person standing near the slits is looking at the fringe pattern. When the separation between the slits is varied, the interference pattern disappears for a particular distance between the slits. If the angular resolution of the eye is , then the value of is close to
- A
- B
- Correct answerC
- D
Solution
When the angular fringe width in the interference pattern becomes less than the angular resolving power of the person's eye, the fringes will disappear.
The angular fringe width
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
