Young's double slit Experiment
Question

 Light of wavelengths λ1 and λ2 is made incident successively on the surface of metal Light of wavelength λ1 produces photo-electric effect whereas light of wavelength λ2does not. Then interference is produced using these light sources, the fringe widths0 obtained are β1 and β2 respectively, then

Moderate
Solution

According to the condition of question, λ1<λ2 we know that β=λD/(2d) where 2 d is the distance between two coherent sources and D  is the distance of screen from two coherent sources. Hence
βλ β1<β2   λ1<λ2
