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 same λ and D) the separation between the slits needs to be changed to:

1. 1.8 mm

2. 1.9 mm

3. 2.1 mm

4. 1.7 mm
