MCQ
In $YDSE$ experiment, when two light rays make third minima, then they have
  • A
    Phase difference of $3\pi $
  • B
    Phase difference of $\frac {5\pi }{2}$
  • C
    Path difference of $3\lambda $
  • Phase difference of $\frac {5\lambda  }{2}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
Phase difference of $\frac {5\lambda  }{2}$
d
For minima, path difference $\Delta=(2 n-1) \frac{\lambda}{2}$

For third minima $n=3 \Rightarrow \Delta=(2 \times 3-1) \frac{\lambda}{2}=\frac{5 \lambda}{2}$
