उत्तर
Given:-
Refractive index of the plate is μ.
The thickness of the plate is t.
Wavelength of the light is λ.
(a)
When the plate is placed in front of the slit, then the optical path difference is given by \[\left( \mu - 1 \right)t\]
(b) For zero intensity at the centre of the fringe pattern, there should be distractive interference at the centre.
So, the optical path difference should be = \[\frac{\lambda}{2}\]
\[i . e . \left( \mu - 1 \right) t = \frac{\lambda}{2}\]
\[ \Rightarrow t = \frac{\lambda}{2 \left( \mu - 1 \right)}\]

In a Young's double slit experiment, using monochromatic light, the fringe pattern shifts by a certain distance on the screen when a mica sheet of refractive index 1.6 and thickness 1.964 micron (1 micron = 10−6 m) is introduced in the path of one of the interfering waves.

It is found that the distance between the successive maxima now is the same as the observed fringe-shift upon the introduction of the mica sheet.
