Problem

In a Young’s double-slit experiment, monochromatic light of wavelengths λ1=600 nm\lambda_1 = 600\,\text{nm} and λ2=480 nm\lambda_2 = 480\,\text{nm} are used simultaneously. The slit separation is 0.20 mm0.20\,\text{mm} and the screen is 1.6 m1.6\,\text{m} away. What is the distance on the screen between the third-order bright fringe of λ1\lambda_1 and the fourth-order bright fringe of λ2\lambda_2? a) 0.48 mm0.48\,\text{mm} b) 4.32 mm4.32\,\text{mm} c) 0.96 mm0.96\,\text{mm} d) 1.92 mm1.92\,\text{mm}
