A technician is performing Young's double-slit experiment for his supervisor. He directs a beam of single-wavelength light to a pair of parallel slits, which are separated by 0.132 mm from each other. The portion of this light that passes through the slits goes on to form an interference pattern upon a screen, which is 4.50 meters distant. The light is characterized by a wavelength of 590 nm. (a) What is the optical path-length difference (in µm) that corresponds to the fifth-order bright fringe on the screen? (This is the fifth fringe, not counting the central bright band, that one encounters moving from the center out to one side.) ?µm (b) What path-length difference (in µm) corresponds to the fifth dark fringe that one encounters when moving out to one side of the central bright fringe? ?µm

Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.
