Question

In Young's double-slit experiment, for bright fringes, the relationship between the distance from the central axis (y), slit separation (d), screen distance (x), wavelength (λ), and order of fringe (n) is given by:
Options
A yd/x = nλ/2
B yx/d = nλ
C yd/x = nλ
Correct Answer
D dx/y = nλ
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Page 3 provides the formula: 'Bright fringes: yd/x = nλ; n = 0, 1, 2, 3 ... ... ... ...'.

Hint

Locate the section that relates measurable distances (y, d, x) to the conditions for bright fringes.
