YDSE: Film, Medium & Two Wavelengths

In Young's double slit experiment, the slit width is $1$ mm and screen is at a distance $2$ m from slits. Light of $600$ nm is used. If a thin glass plate of refractive index $1.5$ of thickness $0.06$ mm is placed over one of the slits then there will be a lateral displacement of the fringes by

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Shift $= \frac{(\mu-1)tD}{d}$ .
$= \frac{0.5\times0.06\times10^{-3}\times2}{1\times10^{-3}} = 0.06$ m
So the answer is (b) 6 cm.
