2. The angular width of the central maximum of the diffraction pattern will increase.
3. The angular width of the central maximum will decrease.
4. The angular width of the central maximum will remain the same.

In Young's experiment, light of wavelength \(4000~\mathring{A}\) is used to produce bright fringes of width \(0.6\) mm, at a distance of \(2\) meters. If the whole apparatus is dipped in a liquid of refractive index \(1.5\), then fringe width will be:
1. \(0.2~\text{mm}\)
2. \(0.3~\text{mm}\)
3. \(0.4~\text{mm}\)
4. \(1.2~\text{mm}\)

In two separate set-ups of the Young's double slit experiment, fringes of equal width are observed when lights of wavelengths in the ratio \(1:2\) are used. If the ratio of the slit separation in the two cases is \(2:1\), the ratio of the distances between the plane of the slits and the screen in the two set-ups is:
1. \(4:1\)
2. \(1:1\)
3. \(1:4\)
4. \(2:1\)

The slits in Young's double-slit experiment have equal widths and the source is placed symmetrically relative to the slits. The intensity at the central fringe is \(I_0\). If one of the slits is closed, the intensity at this point will be:
1. \(I_0\)
2. \(\frac{I_0}{4}\)
3. \(\frac{I_0}{2}\)
4. \(4I_0\)
