Light of wavelength 5.0 x 10-7 m passes through two parallel slits and falls on a screen

Question:

Light of wavelength 5.0 x 10-7 m passes through two parallel slits and falls on a screen 5.0 m away. Adjacent bright bands of the interference pattern are 2.0 cm apart.

(a) Find the distance between the slits.

(b) The same two slits are next illuminated by light of a different wavelength, and the fifth-order minimum for this light occurs at the same point on the screen as the fourth-order minimum for the previous light. What is the wavelength of the second source of light?
