a.) the fifth bright fringe (not counting the central bright fringe)

b.) the eighth dark fringe

2. Red light of wavelength 633 nm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.350 mm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 3.00 m away. Define the width of a bright fringe as the distance between the minima on either side.

a.) What is the width of the central bright fringe?

b.) What is the width of the first bright fringe on either side of the central one?

Suppose you illuminate two thin slits by monochromatic coherent light in air and find that they produce their first interference minima at \pm 35.09 degrees on either side of the central bright spot. You then immerse these slits in a transparent liquid and illuminate them with the same light. Now you find that the first minima occur at \pm 19.48 degrees instead. a) What is the index of refraction of this liquid? Express your answer using four significant figures.
