Detailed Solution

If s is size of the source and S is distant of source from the plane of the two slits, then for interference fringes to seen, the condition is sS<λd
As source slit is brought closer to double slit plane, S decreases, then interference pattern gets less and less sharp. When the source is too close, the fringe separation remains fixed.
Similarly As width of source slit is increased, the interference pattern gets less and less sharp. When the source slit is so wide that condition sS<λd
is violated, the interference pattern disappears.
