In a Young's double slit experiment,each of the two slits $A$ and $B$,as shown in the figure,are oscillating about their fixed center with a mean separation of $0.8 \ mm$. The distance between the slits at time $t$ is given by $d = (0.8 + 0.04 \sin \omega t) \ mm$,where $\omega = 0.08 \ rad \ s^{-1}$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $1 \ m$ and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is $6000 \ \mathring A$. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time,while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point $O$.
$(1)$ The $8^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe above the point $O$ oscillates with time between two extreme positions. The separation between these two extreme positions,in micrometer $(\mu m)$,is. . . . .
$(2)$ The maximum speed in $\mu m/s$ at which the $8^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe will move is. . . . .

In a $YDSE$,light of wavelength $\lambda = 5000 \; \mathring{A}$ is used,which emerges in phase from two slits separated by a distance $d = 3 \times 10^{-7} \; m$. $A$ transparent sheet of thickness $t = 1.5 \times 10^{-7} \; m$ and refractive index $\mu = 1.17$ is placed over one of the slits. What is the new angular position of the central maxima of the interference pattern,and what is its linear position $y$ from the center of the screen?

When one of the slits in Young's experiment is covered with a transparent sheet of thickness $3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ cm$,the central fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the $30^{th}$ bright fringe. If $\lambda = 6000 \ \mathring{A}$,then what is the refractive index of the sheet?
