  • A
    There will be no shift in the interference pattern
  • B
    The fringe width will increase
  • C
    The fringe width will decrease
  • D

The slits in a double-slit interference experiment are illuminated by orange light $(\lambda = 600 \ nm)$. $A$ thin transparent plastic sheet of thickness $t$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The number of fringes $(N)$ shifting on the screen is plotted versus the refractive index $\mu$ of the plastic in the graph shown. The value of $t$ is

Young's double slit experiment is conducted in a liquid of refractive index $\mu_1$ as shown in the figure. $A$ thin transparent slab of refractive index $\mu_2$ and thickness $t$ is placed in front of the slit $S_2$. The magnitude of the optical path difference at point $O$ is
