In Young's double-slit experiment sources of equal intensities are used. The distance between the slits is \(d\) and the wavelength of light used is \(\lambda (\lambda<<d)\). The angular separation of nearest points on either side of central maximum where intensities become half of the maximum value is:
1. \(\frac{\lambda}{d}\)
2. \(\frac{\lambda}{2d}\)
3. \(\frac{\lambda}{4d}\)
4. \(\frac{\lambda}{6d}\)

Young's double-slit experiment is performed in a liquid. The \(10\)th bright fringe in the liquid lies where the \(8\)th dark fringe lies in a vacuum. The refractive index of the liquid is approximately:
1. \(1.81\)
2. \(1.67\)
3. \(1.54\)
4. \(1.33\)

In Young's double-slit experiment, an electron beam is used to obtain an interference pattern. If the speed of electrons is increased:

1. No interference pattern will be observed.
2. Distance between two consecutive fringes remains the same.
3. Distance between two consecutive fringes will decrease.
4. Distance between two consecutive fringes will increase.
