When a thin plastic film of refractive index $\mu = 1.45$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering waves,the central fringe shifts by a distance equal to $5$ fringes. If the wavelength of light used is $5890 \, \mathring{A}$,find the thickness of the film.

$A$ small transparent slab of refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ and thickness $L = d/4$ is placed along the path $AS_2$ (see figure). What will be the distance from $O$ of the principal maxima and the first minima on either side of the principal maxima obtained in the absence of the glass slab? Given $AC = CD = D$ and $S_1C = S_2C = d$ (where $d << D$).

The figure shows a double-slit experiment. Each slit has a width $W$. $A$ thin glass slab of thickness $\delta$ and refractive index $\mu$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The intensity at the central point $C$ is measured as a function of the thickness $\delta$. At what thickness $\delta$ will the intensity at $C$ be minimum?

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

$A$ double slit setup is shown in the figure. One of the slits is in medium $2$ of refractive index $n_2$. The other slit is at the interface of this medium with another medium $1$ of refractive index $n_1(\neq n_2)$. The line joining the slits is perpendicular to the interface and the distance between the slits is $d$. The slit widths are much smaller than $d$. $A$ monochromatic parallel beam of light is incident on the slits from medium $1$. $A$ detector is placed in medium $2$ at a large distance from the slits,and at an angle $\theta$ from the line joining them,so that $\theta$ equals the angle of refraction of the beam. Consider two approximately parallel rays from the slits received by the detector.
Which of the following statement$(s)$ is (are) correct?
$(A)$ The phase difference between the two rays is independent of $d$.
$(B)$ The two rays interfere constructively at the detector.
$(C)$ The phase difference between the two rays depends on $n_1$ but is independent of $n_2$.
$(D)$ The phase difference between the two rays vanishes only for certain values of $d$ and the angle of incidence of the beam,with $\theta$ being the corresponding angle of refraction.

When a glass plate of refractive index $1.44$ is introduced in the path of one of the interfering beams, the fringes are displaced by a distance '$y$'. If this plate is replaced by another plate of same thickness but of refractive index $1.66$, the fringes will be displaced by a distance
