Question
The fringe width in Young's double-slit experiment can be increased if we decrease

Answer

(a)

Fringe width $(\beta)=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

Hence if we decrease $d\left(\beta \propto \frac{1}{d}\right)$

$\beta$ is increased.

A uniform magnetic field $B$ exists in the region between $x=0$ and $x=\frac{3 R}{2}$ (region $2$ in the figure) pointing normally into the plane of the paper. A particle with charge $+Q$ and momentum $p$ directed along $x$-axis enters region $2$ from region $1$ at point $P_1(y=-R)$. Which of the following option(s) is/are correct?

$[A$ For $B>\frac{2}{3} \frac{p}{QR}$, the particle will re-enter region $1$

$[B]$ For $B=\frac{8}{13} \frac{\mathrm{p}}{QR}$, the particle will enter region $3$ through the point $P_2$ on $\mathrm{x}$-axis

$[C]$ When the particle re-enters region 1 through the longest possible path in region $2$ , the magnitude of the change in its linear momentum between point $P_1$ and the farthest point from $y$-axis is $p / \sqrt{2}$

$[D]$ For a fixed $B$, particles of same charge $Q$ and same velocity $v$, the distance between the point $P_1$ and the point of re-entry into region $1$ is inversely proportional to the mass of the particle
