Question
In a Young′s double slit experiment, green light is incident on the two slits. The interference pattern is observed on a screen. Which of the following charges would cause the observed fringes to be more closely spaced ?
Options
A.Reducing the separation between the slits
B.Using blue light instead of green light
C.Used red light instead of green light
D.Moving the light source further away from the slits.
