In a double-slit experiment, fringes are produced using light of wavelength 4800 A°. One slit is covered by a thin plate of glass of refractive index 1.4 and the other slit by another plate of glass of double thickness and of refractive index 1.7. On doing so, the central bright fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the fifth bright fringe from the centre. Find the thickness of the second plates (in μm)

In a two-slit experiment with monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the slits. If the screen is moved by 5×10-2 m towards the slits, the change in fringe width is 3×10-5 m. If the distance between the slits is 10-3 m, calculate the wavelength of the light used (in A°).
