Two plane mirrors are placed parallel to each other at a distance4das shown in the figure. The point source of light S is having wavelength equal toλ. The light is reaching the screen (right of the source) only after reflection. For pointPto be 2nd maxima, the value ofλ2=Kd2D. WhereKis an integer. Find value ofK? (assume D≫dandd≫λ)

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

At P: Path difference∆x=8d×3dD

For2ndmaxima∆x=2λ=24d2D;λ=12d2D

λ2=6d2D=kd2D⇒k=6
