NEET 2016 Physics Young's Double Slit Experiment MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
The intensity at the maximum in a Young’s double slit experiment is I₀. Distance between two slits is d = 5λ, where λ is the wavelength of light used in the experiment. What will be the intensity in front of one of the slits on the screen placed at a distance, D = 10 d?
A
3/4 I₀
B
I₀/2
C
I₀
D
I₀/4
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
In a double slit experiment, the intensity at the position directly in front of one of the slits is maximum, equal to I₀, due to constructive interference.
