A double-slit interference experiment is performed in the air. Later, the same apparatus is immersed in water (water's index of refraction is 1.33), and the experiment is repeated. When the apparatus is in water, what would you expect to see? O The interference fringes are more closely spaced than when the apparatus is in air. The interference fringes are equally spaced than when the apparatus is in air. O The interference fringes are more widely spaced than when the apparatus is in air.

A thin film with an index of refraction of 1.50 is placed in one of the beams of a Michelson interferometer. If this causes a shift of 8 bright fringes in the pattern produced by light of wavelength 480 nm, what is the thickness of the film?
An ideal double slit interference experiment is performed with light of wavelength 640 nm. A bright spot is observed at the center of the resulting pattern as expected. For the 2nd bright spot away from the center, it is known that light passing through the more distant slit travels nm further than the light traveling from the closer slit.
