PARAGRAPH I
In a Young's double slit experiment, each of the two slits
and , as shown in the figure, are oscillating about their fixed center and with a mean separation of
. The distance between the slits at time
is given by
, where
. The distance of the screen from the slits is
and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is 6000 . The interference pattern on the screen changes with time, while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point
.

(i) The
bright fringe above the point oscillates with time between two extreme positions. The separation between these two extreme positions, in micrometer (
), is .
(ii) The maximum speed in
at which the
bright fringe will move is .
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsCHECK THE SOLUTION.
(i) (601.50) (ii) (24.00)
(i)
As central bright fringe position is not changing, the two slits are oscillating with a phase diff of
. For bright fringe

(ii)
Finding speed
