Question
Light from a helium-neon laser (? = 633 nm) is used to illuminate two narrow slits. The interference pattern is observed on a screen 3.2m behind the slits. Eleven bright fringes are seen, spanning a distance of 60mm .
What is the spacing (in mm) between the slits?

Answer:
0.3376 mm
Explanation:
The computation of the spacing in mm between the slits is shown below:
As we know that
where,
L = distance from the scrren
As there are 11 bright fingers seen so m would be
= 11 – 1
= 10
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the spacing is
= 0.3376 mm
We simply applied the above formula.
Answer:
Explanation:
Maximum occurs when the path difference is an integral multiple of wavelength
Here
– Wavelength,
slit separation and
Order of pattern
Rearrange the equation for

Due to the fact that there are 11 bright fringes seen, you take
