If a transparent medium of refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ and thickness $t = 2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, m$ is inserted in front of one of the slits of Young's Double Slit experiment,how much will be the shift in the interference pattern? The distance between the slits is $0.5 \, mm$ and that between slits and screen is $100 \, cm$. (Answer in $cm$)

Two coherent point sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ vibrating in phase emit light of wavelength $\lambda$. The separation between them is $2 \lambda$ as shown in the figure. The first bright fringe is formed at $P$ due to interference on a screen placed at a distance $D$ from $S_1$ $(D >> \lambda)$. Find the distance $OP$.
