MCQ
The slits in a double-slit interference experiment are illuminated by orange light $(\lambda  = 600\  nm)$. A thin transparent plastic of thickness $t$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The number of fringes $(N)$ shifting on screen is plotted versus the refractive index $μ$ of the plastic in graph shown. The value of $t$ is
  • A
    $4.8\  mm$
  • B
    $48\  μm$
  • C
    $2.4\  μ\ m$
  • $24\  μm$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$24\  μm$
d
Shift of central maxima $ = n\lambda  = \left( {\mu  - 1} \right)t$
