In Young's double-slit experiment,a mica sheet of refractive index $\mu$ and thickness $t$ is introduced in the path of the light ray from the first source $S_1$. By what distance will the fringe pattern be shifted?

  • A
    $\frac{d}{D}(\mu - 1)t$
  • B
    $\frac{D}{d}(\mu - 1)t$
  • C
    $\frac{d}{(\mu - 1)D}$
  • D
    $\frac{D}{d}(\mu - 1)$

In a double slit arrangement,fringes are produced using light of wavelength $4800 \ \mathring A$. One slit is covered by a thin plate of glass of refractive index $1.4$ and the other with another glass plate of the same thickness but of refractive index $1.7$. By doing so,the central bright fringe shifts to the original fifth bright fringe from the center. The thickness of the glass plate is ...... $\mu m$.
