Q27.In a double slit experiment with monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the plane of slits. If the screen is moved by 5 × 10−2 m towards the slits, the change in fringe width is 3 × 10−3 cm . If the distance between the slits is 1 mm , then the wavelength of the light will be____ nm .

What This Question Tests

The problem requires calculating the wavelength of light by using the given change in fringe width when the screen distance is altered in a Young's Double Slit Experiment.
