Q. What happens when the source is not equidistant from the two slits

Q. In the set up shown, the two slits

S_{1}

S_{2}

are not equidistant from the slit S. The central fringe at O is then

Q. In YDSE, when dichromatic source of light is used we get interference pattern which is obtained by combination of interference pattern due to each wavelength. A black line is obtained on screen where a minima due to each wavelength coincides. Similarly, when polychromatic source is taken say white light source, resulting interference pattern is superimposition of interference pattern from each wavelength as a result at which we get white central bright fringe surrounded by few coloured fringes on both sides of central bright fringe and then uniform illumination of screen. In a typical YDSE set up, distance between slits(D) is 1mm and screen is placed at a distance (D) of 1 m from slits. The source of light used is dichromatic emitting waves of wavelength

λ_{2}

= 700 nm.

Q. Assertion :In YDSE, if a film is introduced in front of the upper slit, then the fringe pattern shifts in the downward direction Reason: In YDSE if the slit widths are unequal, the minima will be completely dark
