Question
A pair of slits, separated by 0.150 mm, are illuminated by light with a wavelength of 643 nm. An interference pattern is observed on a screen at 140 cm from the slits. Consider a point seen on the screen that is located 1.80 cm to the right of the central bright fringe. Will the point be a minimum (destructive) point, a maximum (constructive) point or somewhere in between

Answer:
Explanation:
slit separation d = .15 mm
screen distance D = 1.4 m
wavelength of light used λ= 643 x 10⁻⁹ m
position of n th bright fringe x
x = n x λ D / d
1.8 x 10⁻² = n x 643 x 10⁻⁹ x 1.4 / .15 x 10⁻³
1.8 x 10⁻² = n x 6 x 10⁻³
n = 3
So 3 rd bright fringe will be formed at a point 1.8 cm from the central bright fringe .
