Suppose Young's double-slit experiment is performed in air using red light and then the apparatus is immersed in water. What happens to the interference pattern on the screen?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The bright fringes will appear much closer together

Explanation:

Because λn = λ/n ,

And the wavelength of light in water is smaller than the wavelength of light in air. Given that the distance between bright fringes is proportional to the wavelength
