In a double slit interference arrangement the fringe spacing is W when the wavelength of the radiation is lambda, the distance between the double slit is S and the distance between the slits and the plane of the observed fringes is D, in which of the following cases would the fringe spacing be the same as W.
Wavelength dist between slits dist between slits and fringes
A 2lambda 2S 2D
B 2, 4S 2D
C 2, 2S 4D
D 4, 2S 2D
I thought C because it would have to travel double the distance, but the mark scheme says B can anyone explane why this is
