Force on Strip in YDSE!

Figure shows two identical narrow slits S 1 S_1 and S 2 S_2 .

A very small completely absorbing strip is placed at distance ' y y ' from the point C C .

' C C ' is the point on the screen equidistant from S 1 S_1 and S 2 S_2 .

Assume ( λ < < d < < D \lambda << d << D ) where λ , d \lambda, d and D D have usual meaning.

When S 2 S_2 is covered, the force due to light acting on strip is ' F F ' and when both slits are opened the force acting on strip is 2 F 2F . Minimum positive ' y y ' ( < < D <<D ) coordinate of the strip in terms of λ , d \lambda, d and D D is λ D 2 m d \frac{\lambda D}{2md} .

What is the value of m m ?


The answer is 2.
