The two slits in Young's double slit experiment are separated by a distance of 0.03 mm. An interference pattern is produced on a screen 1.5 m away. The `3^(rd)` bright fringe is at a distance of 1 cm from the central maximum. Calculate the wavelength of light used.

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for the position of bright fringes in Young's double slit experiment: \[ y_n = \frac{n \lambda D}{d} \] Where: - \( y_n \) is the distance of the nth bright fringe from the central maximum, - \( n \) is the order of the bright fringe (in this case, \( n = 3 \)), - \( \lambda \) is the wavelength of the light, ...
