The source of light changes from orange to blue

\lambda_{\text {orange }}>\lambda_{\text {Bure }}

\begin{aligned} &\text { Fringe width }=\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d} \\ \end{aligned}

\frac{\beta_{\text {orange }}}{\beta_{\text {Blue }}}=\frac{\lambda_{\text {orange }}}{\lambda_{\text {Blue }}}

\beta_{\text {orange }}>\beta_{ \text {Blue }}

Fringe width decreases

The correct option is (2).
