In a double-slit experiment, fringes are produced using light of wavelength 4800A^(@) . One slit is covered by a thin plate of glass of refractive index 1.4 and the other slit by another plate of glass of same thickness and of refractive index 1.7. On doing so, the central bright fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the fifth bright fringe from the centre. find the thickness of the glass plates.

In a young's double slit experiment, green light is incident on the two slits. The interference pattern is observed on a screen. Which of the following changes would cause the observed fringes to be more closely spaced?

A mixture of light consisting of wavelength 590 nm and an unknown wavelength, illuminates Young's double slit and gives rise to two overlapping interface patterns on the screen. The central maximum of both light coincide. Further it is observed that the third bright fringe of known light coincides with the 4^(th) bright fringe of the unknown light. From this data, the wavelength of the unknown light is

A light source, which emits two wavelength lamda_(1)=400nm and lamda_(2)=600nm , is used in a Young's double slit experiment. If recorded fringe width for lamda_(1) and lamda_(2) are beta_(1) and beta_(2) and the number of fringes for them within a distance y on one side of the central maximum are m_(1) and m_(2) respectively, then
