In Young's double slit experiment, two slits S1 and S2 are 'd' distance apart and the separation from slits to screen is D (as shown in figure). Now if two transparent slabs of equal thickness 0.1 mm but refractive index 1.51 and 1.55 are introduced in the path of beam (λ=4000 Ao) from S1 and S2 respectively. The central bright fringe spot will shift by ___________ number of fringes.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Path difference introduced by two slabs =(μ2−μ1)t

⇒ Number of shifts =(μ2−μ1)tλ

=0.04×0.1mm4000Ao

=4×10−2×10−44×10−7=10
