Q139 / 155 · WBJEE 2023 · Physics
X-rays of wavelength \(\lambda\) gets reflected from parallel planes of atoms in a crystal with spacing \(\mathrm{d}\) between two planes as shown in the figure. If the two reflected beams interfere constructively, then the condition for maxima will be, ( \(\mathrm{n}\) is the order of interference fringe)


- A\(\mathrm{d} \tan \theta=\mathrm{n} \lambda\)
- B\(\mathrm{d} \sin \theta=n \lambda\)
- C\(2 \mathrm{~d} \cos \theta=\mathrm{n} \lambda\)
- Correct answerD\(2 \mathrm{~d} \sin \theta=\mathrm{n} \lambda\)
Solution
Hint : \(2 \mathrm{~d} \sin \theta=\mathrm{n} \lambda\)
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
