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 = \[\frac{\lambda}{2}\]
\[i . e . \left( \mu - 1 \right) t = \frac{\lambda}{2}\]
\[ \Rightarrow t = \frac{\lambda}{2 \left( \mu - 1 \right)}\]
