In a Young’s double-slit experiment performed in air the fringe width is 2.5 mm2.5\,\text{mm}. The entire apparatus is then immersed in water of refractive index 1.331.33, the wavelength of the light remaining unchanged. a. (a) Find the new fringe width. b. (b) Determine the shift (magnitude and direction) of the third bright fringe from its earlier position.
