In Young's double slit experiment the separation d between the slits is 2 mm, the wavelength λ of the light used is 5896 Å and distance D between the screen and slits is 100 cm. It is found that the angular width of the fringes is 0.20°. To increase the fringe angular width to 0.21° (with the same λ and D) the separation between the slits needs to be changed to
1.8 mm
19 mm
1.7 mm
2.1 mm
When the light of frequency 2v0 (where v0 is threshold frequency), is incident on a metal plate, the maximum velocity of electrons emitted is v1. When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to 5v0, the maximum velocity of electrons emitted from the same plate is v2. The ratio of v1 to v2 is

1:4
2:1
4:1
White light is used to illuminate two slits in Young's double slit experiment. The separation between the slits is b and the screen is at a distance d (>>b) from the slits. At a point on the screen directly in front of one of the slits, which wavelengths are missing?
