Imagine a Young's double-slit interference experiment performed with waves associated with fast-moving electrons produced from an electron gun. The distance between successive maxima (fringe width) will decrease if:

When monochromatic light of wavelength $600 nm$ is used in Young's double slit experiment,the fifth order bright fringe is formed at $6 mm$ from the central bright fringe on the screen. If the experiment is conducted with light of wavelength $400 nm$,the third order bright fringe will be located at: (in $mm$)

In Young's double-slit experiment,a monochromatic light source is used to illuminate slits $S_1$ and $S_2$. An interference pattern is obtained on the screen with a fringe width of $w$. If a mica sheet of thickness $t$ and refractive index $\mu$ is placed in front of one of the slits,the new fringe width $w'$ becomes:
