in young's double slit experiment ,the slits are separated by 0.24mm.The screen is 1.2m away from the slits .the fringe width is 0.3 cm.find the wavelength of light used.
ans is 6000 amstrong

fringe width is given by:β = λDdD = 1.2 md = 0.24 mm 0.3×10-2 = λ×1.20.24×10-3 λ = 0.3×10-2×0.24×10-3/1.2 = 6×10-7 = 6000×10-10 = 6000 A0
