JEE Advanced 2024 Paper 2, Physics Section 4 Q1: Young’s Double Slit Experiment
PARAGRAPH I
In a Young's double slit experiment, each of the two slits and , as shown in the figure, are oscillating about their fixed center and with a mean separation of mm. The distance between the slits at time is given by mm, where rad s. The distance of the screen from the slits is m and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is Å. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time, while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point .
Q1. The bright fringe above the point oscillates with time between two extreme positions. The separation between these two extreme positions, in micrometer (m), is ______.
For the bright fringe, .
With , m, m, and m:
oscillates between mm and mm. The corresponding extremes of are
The separation is
