JEE MAIN - Physics (2023 - 30th January Morning Shift - No. 23)
In Young's double slit experiment, two slits $$S_{1}$$ and $$S_{2}$$ are '$$d$$' distance apart and the separation from slits to screen is $$\mathrm{D}$$ (as shown in figure). Now if two transparent slabs of equal thickness $$0.1 \mathrm{~mm}$$ but refractive index $$1.51$$ and $$1.55$$ are introduced in the path of beam $$(\lambda=4000$$ $$\mathop A\limits^o $$) from $$\mathrm{S}_{1}$$ and $$\mathrm{S}_{2}$$ respectively. The central bright fringe spot will shift by ___________ number of fringes.
Explanation
Path difference introduced by two slabs $$=(\mu_2-\mu_1)t$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Number of shifts $$ = {{({\mu _2} - {\mu _1})t} \over \lambda }$$
$$ = {{0.04 \times 0.1\,\mathrm{mm}} \over {4000\,\mathop A\limits^o }}$$
$$ = {{4 \times {{10}^{ - 2}} \times {{10}^{ - 4}}} \over {4 \times {{10}^{ - 7}}}} = 10$$
