A light source simultaneously emits light of two wavelengths, 480 nm and 560 nm, respectively. The source is used in a double-slit interference experiment where the slit spacing is a 0.040 mm, and the distance between double slits and the screen is 1.2 m. What is the separation between the second-order bright fringes of the two wavelengths as they appear on the screen

Answer :

Answer:

0.48 cm

Explanation:

given data

wavelength = 480 nm

wavelength = 560 nm

slit spacing = 0.040 mm

distance between double slits and the screen  = 1.2 m

solution

we know that  (1 nm= [tex]10^{-9}[/tex] m)

we wil take here equation of equations of interference that is

ym = R × (m λ)/d    ..........................1

here m = 2 R  i.e distance of screen and slit

 so put here value and we get

separation between the second-order bright fringes = 0.48 cm
