MCQ
Interference was observed in interference chamber when air was present, now the chamber is evacuated and if the same light is used, a careful observer will see
  • A
    No interference
  • B
    Interference with bright bands
  • C
    Interference with dark bands
  • Interference in which width of the fringe will be slightly increased

Answer

Correct option: D.
Interference in which width of the fringe will be slightly increased
The refractive index of air is slightly more than $1.$ When chamber is evacuated, refractive index decreases and hence the wavelength increases and fringe width also increases.
