In Young's double-slit experiment,a thin mica sheet of thickness $12 \times 10^{-7} \ m$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams. It is observed that the central bright fringe shifts by a distance equal to the fringe width. If the wavelength of light used is $6 \times 10^{-7} \ m$,find the refractive index of the mica sheet.
