A light source, which emits two wavelengths 2 = 400 nm and 22 = 600 nm, is used in a Young's double slit experiment. If recorded fringe widths for 2 and 22 are and B and the number of fringes for them within a distance y on one side of the central maximum are m and m2, respectively, then (A) B> B (B) m > m (C) From the central maximum, 3rd maximum of 22 overlaps with 5th minimum of 2 (D) The angular separation of fringes for 2 is greater than 2
