In a Young's double slit experiment,a laser light of $560\,nm$ produces an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of $7.2\,mm$. Now another light is used to produce an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of $8.1\,mm$. The wavelength of the second light is $......nm$.

Assertion: In Young's double slit experiment,the two slits are at a distance $d$ apart. An interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance $D$ from the slits. At a point on the screen directly opposite to one of the slits,a dark fringe is observed. Then,the wavelength of the wave is proportional to the square of the distance between the two slits.
Reason: For a dark fringe,the intensity is zero.

If the source of light used in a Young's Double Slit Experiment is changed from red to blue,then

In $Y.D.S.E$,the ratio of intensity of maxima and minima is $25 : 9$. The ratio of slit width is
