In Young's double slit experiment, two slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ are $d$ distance apart and the separation from slits to screen is $D$. If two transparent slabs of equal thickness $t = 0.1 \text{ mm}$ but refractive indices $\mu_1 = 1.51$ and $\mu_2 = 1.55$ are introduced in the path of the beam $(\lambda = 4000 \text{ Å})$ from $S_1$ and $S_2$ respectively, the central bright fringe will shift by how many fringes?

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $15$
  • D
    $20$

$A$ beam of light consisting of two wavelengths $650 \, nm$ and $520 \, nm$ is used to illuminate the slits of a Young's double-slit experiment. The order of the bright fringe of the longer wavelength that coincides with a bright fringe of the shorter wavelength at the least distance from the central maximum is:
