The slits in a double-slit interference experiment are illuminated by orange light $(\lambda = 600 \ nm)$. $A$ thin transparent plastic sheet of thickness $t$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The number of fringes $(N)$ shifting on the screen is plotted versus the refractive index $\mu$ of the plastic in the graph shown. The value of $t$ is

  • A
    $4.8 \ mm$
  • B
    $48 \ \mu m$
  • C
    $2.4 \ \mu m$
  • D
    $24 \ \mu m$

In a double slit arrangement,fringes are produced using light of wavelength $4800 \ \mathring A$. One slit is covered by a thin plate of glass of refractive index $1.4$ and the other with another glass plate of the same thickness but of refractive index $1.7$. By doing so,the central bright fringe shifts to the original fifth bright fringe from the center. The thickness of the glass plate is ...... $\mu m$.

In a double-slit experiment,green light $(5303\,\mathring{A})$ falls on a double slit having a separation of $19.44\,\mu m$ and a width of $4.05\,\mu m$. The number of bright fringes between the first and the second diffraction minima is

In the figure shown,if a parallel beam of light is incident on the plane of the slits at an angle such that the path difference at point $O$ is $\Delta x = d \sin \theta = d \cdot (\frac{2d/3}{d}) = \frac{2d}{3}$,and if point $O$ is a maxima for monochromatic light,then which of the following cannot be the wavelength of the incident light?
