$A$ parallel coherent beam of light falls on a Fresnel biprism of refractive index $\mu$ and refracting angle $\alpha$. The fringe width on a screen at a distance $D$ from the biprism will be (wavelength $= \lambda$).

White light may be considered to be a mixture of waves with $\lambda$ ranging between $3900\ \mathring A$ and $7800\ \mathring A$. An oil film of thickness $10,000\ \mathring A$ is examined normally by reflected light. If $\mu = 1.4$,then the film appears bright for

In a biprism experiment using sodium light $\lambda_1 = 6000\, \mathring{A}$,an interference pattern is obtained in which $20$ fringes occupy $2\, cm$. On replacing sodium light by another source of wavelength $\lambda_2$ without making any other change,$30$ fringes occupy $2.7\, cm$ on the screen. What is the value of $\lambda_2$ in $\mathring{A}$?

In a Fresnel's biprism experiment,a mica sheet of refractive index $1.5$ and thickness $6 \times 10^{-6} \ m$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams. As a result,the central fringe shifts by a distance equal to $5$ fringe widths. The wavelength of light used is .... $\mathring{A}$

This question has a paragraph followed by two statements,Statement $- 1$ and Statement $- 2$. Of the given four alternatives after the statements,choose the one that describes the statements.
$A$ thin air film is formed by putting the convex surface of a plano-convex lens over a plane glass plate. With monochromatic light,this film gives an interference pattern due to light reflected from the top (convex) surface and the bottom (glass plate) surface of the film.
Statement $- 1$: When light reflects from the air-glass plate interface,the reflected wave suffers a phase change of $\pi$.
Statement $- 2$: The centre of the interference pattern is dark.
