When one of the slits in Young's experiment is covered with a transparent sheet of thickness $3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ cm$,the central fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the $30^{th}$ bright fringe. If $\lambda = 6000 \ \mathring{A}$,then what is the refractive index of the sheet?

  • A
    $0.5$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1.5$
  • D
    $3$

In a double-slit experiment,the wavelength $\lambda$ of the light source is $400 \ nm$,the slit separation $d$ is $20 \ \mu m$,and the individual slit width $a$ is $4 \ \mu m$. Considering the interference of light from the two slits and the diffraction of light through each slit,find the number of bright interference fringes that lie within the central peak of the diffraction envelope.
