In a two-slit experiment with monochromatic light,fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the slits. If the screen is moved by $5 \times 10^{-2} \ m$ towards the slits,the change in fringe width is $3 \times 10^{-5} \ m$. If the separation between the slits is $10^{-3} \ m$,the wavelength of light used is ....... $\mathring{A}$.

In Young's double slit experiment,when the wavelength used is $6000 \ \mathring{A}$ and the screen is $40 \ cm$ from the slits,the fringes are $0.012 \ cm$ wide. What is the distance between the slits in $cm$?

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width is $0.8 \, mm$ when light of wavelength $6000 \, \mathring{A}$ is used,and the screen is at a distance of $2.5 \, m$. If the experiment is performed in a liquid with a refractive index of $1.6$,the new fringe width will be.....$mm$.
