If a thin mica sheet of thickness $t$ and refractive index $\mu = 5/3$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams as shown in the figure,then the displacement of the fringe system is:

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.

$A$ small transparent slab of refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ and thickness $L = d/4$ is placed along the path $AS_2$ (see figure). What will be the distance from $O$ of the principal maxima and the first minima on either side of the principal maxima obtained in the absence of the glass slab? Given $AC = CD = D$ and $S_1C = S_2C = d$ (where $d << D$).

Young's double slit experiment is carried out with two thin sheets of thickness $t = 10.4 \, \mu m$ each and refractive indices $\mu_1 = 1.52$ and $\mu_2 = 1.40$ covering the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$,respectively. If white light of range $400 \, nm$ to $780 \, nm$ is used,then which wavelength will form maxima exactly at point $O$,the centre of the screen?

In a Young's double-slit experiment,light of wavelength $4800 \, \mathring A$ is used. If both slits are covered by transparent plates of the same thickness $t$ having refractive indices $\mu_1 = 1.5$ and $\mu_2 = 1.8$,and the central bright fringe shifts to the position of the fifth bright fringe,then the thickness of the plates is ....... $\mu m$.
