Consider the following statements and then mark the incorrect statement/s.

a. The angular separation of the fringes increases if the screen is moved towards the plane of the slits.
b. The angular separation of the fringes increases if the (monochromatic) source is replaced by another (monochromatic) source of a shorter wavelength.
c. The angular separation of the fringes increases if the separation between the two slits is increased.
d. The sharpness of the fringes increases when the source slit is moved closer to the double-slit plane.
