A Young's double-slit experimental set up is kept in a medium of refractive index $\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)$. Which maximum in this case will coincide with the $6^{\text {th }}$ maximum obtained if the medium is replaced by air?
Assertion (A): In a Young's double-slit experiment, interference pattern is not observed when two coherent sources are infinitely close to each other.
Reason (R): The fringe width is proportional to the separation between the two sources.
A beam of light travels from air into a medium. Its speed and wavelength in the medium are $$1.5 \times 10^8\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$$ and $$230 \mathrm{~nm}$$ respectively. The wavelength of light in air will be
Assertion (A) : In Young's double slit experiment all fringes are of equal width.
Reason (R) : The fringe width depends upon wavelength of light $$(\lambda)$$ used, distance of screen from plane of slits (D) and slits separation (d).
