XII Physics
Young’s double slit experiment D is the distance of the slits from the screen
λD d is the distance between the slits
Fringe width is β =
d λ is the wavelength of incident light
λ
Angular width of fringes is
d
Diffraction at a single slit of width ‘a’ gives λ is the wavelength of incident light
zero intensity at angles of ‘a’ is the width of the slit
λ 2λ 3λ
± ,± ,± etc.

Secondary maximas are at

0, ± ,± etc.

Resolving power of a microscope is the n is r.i. of medium between the object and
reciprocal of minimum separation of two objective lens
points (dmin) to be seen as distinct. λ is the wavelength of incident light
1 2n sin β 2β is the angle subtended by the diameter
Re solving power = =
dmin 1.22λ of objective lens at the focus of the microscope.
