    The document discusses the conditions for destructive interference in a double-slit experiment. It derives an equation showing that the diameter of a dark ring is related to the radius of curvature, wavelength of light, and difference between the path lengths of light passing through each slit. It then applies this equation to a specific example using a sodium lamp, slit separation of 1 mm, and the central dark ring to calculate that the gap between slits must be less than 300 nm for the first dark band to appear.

    =600 nm for Sodium lamp


    R=1 mm
    m=1 for center dark ring

    0=4 Rm 8 R t 0


    t 0= =300 this means center band will appear when the gap isless than300 nm
