In Young's double slit experiment, the 
-coordinates of central maximum and 10 th maxima are 2 cm and 5 cm, respectively. When the YDSE apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index 1.5. The corresponding 
-coordinates will be

Fringe width, 
i.e. 
So, wavelength 
and hence fringe width 
decreases 1.5 or 
times when immersed in liquid. The distance between central maximum and 10th maxima is 3 cm in vacuum. When immersed in liquid it will reduce to 2 cm. Position of central maximum will not change while 10th maxima will be obtained at 
.
