A. 1.2 mm
B. 2.4 mm
C. 1.2 cm
D. 2.4 cm
Correct Option is (B)
The distance between the central bright fringe and the first dark fringe is given as:

2. ⇒ (MHT CET 2023 11th May Morning Shift )
In the experiment of diffraction due to a single slit, if the slit width is decreased, the width of the central maximum
A. becomes zero.
B. does not change.
C. increases.
D. decreases.
Correct Option is (C)
Width of the central maxima
Thus, the slit width is inversely proportional to the width of the central maximum.
Hence, when the slit width is decreased, the width of the central maxima increases.

A parallel beam of monochromatic light falls normally on a single narrow slit. The angular width of the central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern
A. increases with increase of slit width.
B. decreases with increase of slit width.
C. decreases with decrease of slit width.
D. may increase or decrease with decrease of slit width.
Correct Option is (C)
Width of central maximum
Angular width of principal maximum decreases with increase in width of the slit.
