Problem

Setup A uses light of wavelength 500 nm500\,\text{nm} and slits separated by 0.25 mm0.25\,\text{mm}. For the same screen distance, the third bright fringe produced by setup A appears at exactly the same location as the fourth bright fringe produced by setup B, which uses light of wavelength 650 nm650\,\text{nm}. What is the slit separation in setup B? a) 0.24 mm0.24\,\text{mm} b) 0.49 mm0.49\,\text{mm} c) 0.43 mm0.43\,\text{mm} d) 0.33 mm0.33\,\text{mm}
