In a Young's double slit experiment,

Question:

In a Young's double slit experiment, light of $500 \mathrm{~nm}$ is used to produce an interference pattern. When the distance between the slits is $0.05 \mathrm{~mm}$, the angular width (in degree) of the fringes formed on the distance screen is close to :

  1. $0.07^{\circ}$

  2. $0.17^{\circ}$

  3. $1.7^{\circ}$

  4. $0.57^{\circ}$


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

$\Delta \theta_{0}=\left(\frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{d}} \times \frac{180}{\pi}\right)^{0}$

$=0.57^{\circ}$
