Q1. A) Two slits are 0.450 mm apart and 75.0 cm from a screen. What is the distance between the second and third dark lines of the interference pattern on the screen when the slits are illuminated with coherent light with a wavelength of 500 nm?

B) If the entire set-up is now placed in water, what will be the distance between the second and third dark lines?

I understand part A but am a little confused on how to solve part B. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.

Light from a red laser (650 nm) is incident on two slits separated by 0.5 mm. Each slit is 0.25 mm wide. Quantitatively sketch the pattern you would observe on a screen that is located 2.0 m from the slits. Your sketch should range from -10 mm to 10 mm and include only the fringes you would observe. (Label the locations of the fringes) PLEASE EXPLAIN THOROUGHLY!!!!
