  The quantitative formulation of Bohr's complementarity proposed by
Greenberger and Yasin is applied to some physical situations for which
analytical expressions are available. This includes a variety of conventional
double-slit experiments, but also particle oscillations, as in the case of the
neutral-kaon system, and Mott scattering of identical nuclei. For all these
cases, a unified description can be achieved including a new parameter, $\nu$,
which quantifies the effective number of fringes one can observe in each
specific interferometric set-up.
