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 $\mathring{A}$?

Light is incident on a glass plate $(\mu = 1.5)$ such that the angle of refraction is $60^\circ$. $A$ dark band is observed corresponding to a wavelength of $6000 \, \mathring A$. If the thickness of the glass plate is $1.2 \times 10^{-3} \, mm$,find the order of the interference band.
