AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for the position of bright fringes in Young's double-slit experiment. The formula for the position of the nth bright fringe (Y_n) is given by: \[ Y_n = \frac{n \lambda D}{d} \] where: - \( Y_n \) = distance from the central maximum to the nth bright fringe - \( n \) = order of the bright fringe (for the fourth bright fringe, \( n = 4 \)) - \( \lambda \) = wavelength of light ...
