JEE Main 29 June 2022, Shift 2, Physics Q59

Question 59 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 29 of 30, Section B.

In a double slit experiment with monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the plane of slits. If the screen is moved by 5 ×

10^{-2}

m towards the slits, the change in fringe width is 3 ×

10^{-3}

cm. If the distance between the slits is 1 mm, then the wavelength of the light will be ________ nm.
