In Young’s double slit experiment, the two slits are \(0.6\) mm distance apart. The interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance of \(80\) cm from the slits. The first dark fringe is observed on the screen directly opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light will be:
1. \(450\) nm
2. \(550\) nm
3. \(650\) nm
4. \(750\) nm

For Young's double-slit experiment, two statements are given below:
Statement I: If screen is moved away from the plane of slits, angular separation of the fringes remains constant. 
Statement Ii: If the monochromatic source is replaced by another monochromatic source of larger wavelength, the angular separation of fringes decreases.
 
1. Statement I is False but Statement II is True.
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are True.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are False.
4. Statement I is True but Statement II is False.

In Young's double-slit experiment, slits are separated by \(0.5~\text{mm}\) and the screen is placed \(150~\text{cm}\) away. A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths, \(650~\text{nm}\) and \(975~\text{nm}\) is used to obtain interference fringes on the screen. The least distance from the common central maximum to the point where the bright fringes due to both wavelengths coincide is: 
1. \(5.85~\text{mm}\)
2. \(7.8~\text{mm}\)
3. \(4.2~\text{mm}\)
4. \(3.6~\text{mm}\)
