Question
Write the statements of Kirchhoff's laws.
✓
Answer
→The statements of Kirchhoff"s laws are as follows:
(1) Junction rule : "At any junction, the sum of the currents entering the junction is equal to the sum of currents leaving the junction."
(2) Loop rule : "The algebraic sum of changes in potential around any closed loop involving resistors and cells in the loop is zero."
→Kirchhoff's junction rule works on the law of conservation of charge and loop rule works on the law of conservation of energy.

Two transparent slabs having equal thickness but different refractive indices $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ are pasted side by side to form a composite slab. This slab is placed just after the double slit in a Young's experiment so that the light from one slit goes through one material and the light from the other slit goes through the other material. What should be the minimum thickness of the slab so that there is a minimum at the point P0 which is equidistant from the slits?
