What happens to the distance between interference fringes if the separation between two slits is increased?
1 answer:
Answer:
It will decrease
Explanation:
The double-slit interference equation, which gives us the position y of a maximum on the screen (measured relative to the central position), is
where
n is the order of the maximum
D is the distance between the slits and the screen
is the wavelength of the light
d is the separation between the two slits
From the formula, we see that y is inversely proportional to d: this means that if the separation between the slits is increased, the distance of each maximum from the central position (y) decreases, therefore the distance between the interference fringes will decrease.

Answer
given,
speed of car = 60 km/hr
= 60 x 0.278 m/s
= 16.68 m/s
radius of the tire = 25 cm = 0.25 m
time taken to stop = 6 s
average acceleration = ?
average acceleration=
=
= 11.12 rad/s²
correct answer option D
b) length of sea saw = 10 m
mass of jack = 100 Kg
mass of Jill = 60 Kg
Let y be the distance from the Jack. To balance the seesaw moment on both side should balance each other about fulcrum
now,
100 x y = 5 x 60
y = 3 m
the correct answer is option B
