Young's double slit experiment can be used to determine:
Correct answer: D. All of these
- A. Wavelength of monochromatic light
- B. Distance between the slits
- C. Fringe spacing
- D. All of these
Explanation
Young's double slit experiment is a fundamental demonstration in optics that allows for the determination of multiple properties of light. It can be used to find the wavelength of monochromatic light, measure the distance between the slits, and calculate the fringe spacing. Therefore, the correct answer is 'All of these'. The other options are incorrect because they only mention one specific property that can be determined using Young's double slit experiment, while the correct answer encompasses all of them.

About Optics
Light is studied through reflection, refraction, dispersion, interference, diffraction and polarization, linking ray behavior with its wave nature. Questions may involve mirrors, lenses, optical instruments, refractive index and image formation, while geometrical optics deals with rays and wave optics explains effects such as interference and diffraction.
