Detailed Solution

In Young's double slit experiment the linear fringe width is given by the expression, 

β=λDd.
where λ is the wavelength of light used, d is separation between the slits, and D is the distance between slit and the screen.
Whereas, angular fringe width is given by, 

ω=βD=λd
In the problem, D is increased.
So, β=λDd also increases.
But ω=λd remain same.
