- Fringe width in YDSE
For Young's double slit experiment, eta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} where
So,
- Condition for intensity to become half of maximum
In YDSE, intensity at a point is
For first time, So,
Thus, for the first time. Hence,
Now phase difference is related to path difference by So,
- Convert path difference to position on screen
In YDSE, Thus,
So,
- Write in the required form
We need
Since
Therefore, the required integer is
