Young's double slit Experiment
Question

In Young's double slit experiment, the 8th maximum with wavelength λ1 is at a distance d1 from the central maximum and the 6th maximum with a wavelength λ2 is at a distance d2. Then (d1/d2) is equal to

Easy
Solution

Position of nth maxima from central maxima is given by xn=nλDd

xnd1d2=n1λ1n2λ2=8λ16λ2=43λ1λ2
