In Young’s double slit experiment, the slits are \(2~\text{mm}\) apart and are illuminated by photons of two wavelengths \(\lambda_1 = 12000~\mathring{A}\) and \(\lambda_2 = 10000~\mathring{A}\). At what minimum distance from the common central bright fringe on the screen, \(2~\text{m}\) from the slit, will a bright fringe from one interference pattern coincide with a bright fringe from the other?
1. \(6~\text{mm}\)
2. \(4~\text{mm}\)
3. \(3~\text{mm}\)
4. \(8~\text{mm}\)

Light travels faster in the air than in glass. This is in accordance with:

1. the wave theory of light.
2. the corpuscular theory of light.
3. neither \((1)\) nor \((2)\)
4. both \((1)\) and \((2)\)

In Young's double-slit experiment, the slit separation is doubled. This results in:

1. An increase in fringe intensity
2. A decrease in fringe intensity
3. Halving of the fringe spacing
4. Doubling of the fringe spacing

In Young's double-slit experiment, the light emitted from the source has \(\lambda = 6.5\times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\) and the distance between the two slits is \(1~\text{mm}.\) The distance between the screen and slits is \(1~\text m.\) The distance between third dark and fifth bright fringe will be:
1. \(3.2~\text{mm}\) 
2. \(1.63~\text{mm}\)

In Young's double-slit experiment, the ratio of intensities of bright and dark fringes is \(9\). This means that:
1. the intensities of individual sources are \(5\) and \(4\) units respectively.
2. the intensities of individual sources are \(4\) and \(1\) unit respectively.
3. the ratio of their amplitudes is \(3\).
4. the ratio of their amplitudes is \(6\).
