Question:

In a double-slit experiment, He-Ne laser light of wavelength 633 nm produced an interference pattern on a screen placed some distance from the slits. When one of the slits was covered with a thin glass slide of thickness 12.0 μm, the central bright fringe shifted to the point occupied earlier by the 10th dark fringe (see the figure). What is the index of refraction of the glass slide?

I have done job as Embedded System Engineer for just four months but after it i have decided to open my own lab and to work on projects that i can launch my own product in market. I work on different softwares like Proteus, Mikroc to program Embedded Systems. My basic work is on Embedded Systems. I have skills in Autocad, Proteus, C++, C programming and i love to share these skills to other to enhance my knowledge too.
