In Young's double slit experiment,the wavelength of red light is $7800\,\mathring{A}$ and that of blue light is $5200\,\mathring{A}$. The value of $n$ for which the $n^{th}$ bright band due to red light coincides with the $(n + 1)^{th}$ bright band due to blue light is:

This question has Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement-$1$: In Young's double slit experiment,the number of fringes observed in the field of view is small with longer wavelength of light and is large with shorter wavelength of light.
Statement-$2$: In the double slit experiment,the fringe width depends directly on the wavelength of light.

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width is $0.8 \, mm$ when light of wavelength $6000 \, \mathring{A}$ is used,and the screen is at a distance of $2.5 \, m$. If the experiment is performed in a liquid with a refractive index of $1.6$,the new fringe width will be.....$mm$.

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

In a Young's double-slit experiment,$92$ fringes are observed when sodium light $(\lambda = 5898 \, \mathring A)$ is used. If light of wavelength $\lambda = 5461 \, \mathring A$ is used instead,how many fringes will be observed?
