JEE Main 2025 — 24 January, Morning Shift — Question 55

The Young's double slit interference experiment is performed using light consisting of 480 nm and 600 nm wavelengths to form interference patterns. The least number of the bright fringes of 480 nm light that are required for the first coincidence with the bright fringes formed by 600 nm light is :-

  1. Option A:

    4

  2. Option B:

    8

  3. Option C:

    6

  4. Option D:

    5

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

n1λ1Dd=n2λ2Dd\frac{n_{1} \lambda_{1} D}{d}=\frac{n_{2} \lambda_{2} D}{d}

n 480=m600480=m 600

nmin =5\mathrm{n}_{\text {min }}=5
