In a biprism experiment, the $4^{th}$ dark band is formed opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light used is (where $D$ = distance between source and screen, $d$ = distance between the slits).

In a Fresnel's biprism experiment,the distance between the source and the screen is $1 \, m$ and the distance between the source and the biprism is $10 \, cm$. The wavelength of light is $6000 \, \mathring{A}$. The fringe width is $0.03 \, cm$ and the refracting angle of the biprism is $1^\circ$. Find the refractive index of the material of the biprism.

$A$ transparent film of refractive index $2.0$ is coated on a glass slab of refractive index $1.45$. What is the minimum thickness of the transparent film to be coated for the maximum transmission of green light of wavelength $550 \ \text{nm}$ (in $\text{nm}$)? [Assume that the light is incident nearly perpendicular to the glass surface.]

In a biprism experiment, the fifth dark fringe is obtained at a point. $A$ thin transparent film of refractive index '$\mu$' is placed in one of the interfering paths. Now, the $7^{th}$ bright fringe is obtained at the same point. If '$\lambda$' is the wavelength of light used, the thickness of the film is equal to:
