The maximum number of possible interference maxima for slit-seperation equal to twice the wavelength, in young’s double slit experiment is
Options
(a) Infinite
(b) five
(c) three
(d) zero
Correct Answer:
five
Explanation:
For interference maxima, d sin θ = nλ
⇒ 2λ sin θ = nλ ⇒ sin θ = n / 2
sin θ can have values between 0 and ±1.
Hence n can be (-2, -1, 0, +1, +2) or five values.
The possible maxima are five.
