Question
A thin transparent sheet is placed in front of a Young's double slit. The fringe-width will:
  1. Increase.
  2. Decrease.
  3. Remain same.
  4. Become nonuniform.

Answer

  1. Remain same.
Explanation:
On the introduction of a transparent sheet in front of one of the slits, the fringe pattern will shift slightly but the width will remain the same.
