The figure shows two glass slides illuminated by monochromatic light incident perpendicularly. The top slide touches the bottom slide at one end and rests on a 0.105 mm diameter hair at the other end, forming a thin wedge of air. Rays 1 and 2 as well as rays 1' and 2' shown in the diagram are interfering destructively.

 

How far apart, in millimeters, are the dark bands seen in the slides, if the slides are 8.5 cm long and 592 nm light is used?
