In Young's double-slit experiment, if the wavelength of light is decreased, the fringe width will .....

Two coherent sources $P$ and $Q$ produce interference at point $A$ on the screen,where a dark band is formed between the $4^{\text{th}}$ and $5^{\text{th}}$ bright band. The wavelength of light used is $6000 \text{ Å}$. The path difference between $PA$ and $QA$ is:

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: In a Young's double slit experiment, the angular separation of fringes will increase as the screen is moved away from the plane of the slits.
Statement $II$: In a Young's double slit experiment, the angular separation of fringes will increase when a monochromatic source is replaced by another monochromatic source of higher wavelength.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

In the ideal double-slit experiment,when a glass plate (refractive index $\mu = 1.5$) of thickness $t$ is introduced in the path of one of the interfering beams (wavelength $\lambda$),the intensity at the position where the central maximum occurred previously remains unchanged. The minimum thickness of the glass plate is:
