Problem

Two identical glass plates of thickness tt and refractive index 1.51.5 are placed, one in front of each slit. If the plate in front of the upper slit is heated such that its thickness increases by 10%10\% due to thermal expansion (ignore index change), calculate the phase difference introduced at the central axis (y=0y=0) in terms of tt and λ\lambda.
