Question

2. An air wedge made of 2 glass slides, 11 cm long, are separated at one end by a piece of paper (t = 0.091 mm). Answer the following: [12A] 1) If red light ($\lambda$ = 663 nm) is shone on the wedge, what is the spacing 2) in the interference pattern between the dark fringes? How would the spacing change if the wedge was filled with water (n = 1.33)?

An air wedge made of 2 glass slides, 11cm long, are separated at one end by a piece of paper (t)=(0.091mm). Answer the following: [12A] If red light (lambda )=(663nm) is shone on the wedge, what is the spacing 2 ) in the interference pattern between the dark fringes? How would the spacing change if the wedge was filled with water (n)=(1.33) ? by a piece of paper (t=0.091 mm).Answer the following: [12A] 2) in the interference pattern between the dark fringes?
