Answer:
The number of interference fringes is [tex]n = 3[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 433 \ nm = 433 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
The distance of separation is [tex]d = 6 \mu m = 6 *10^{-6} \ m[/tex]
The order of maxima is m = 5
The condition for constructive interference is
[tex]d sin \theta = n \lambda[/tex]
=> [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [\frac{5 * 433 *10^{-9}}{ 6 *10^{-6}} ][/tex]
=> [tex]\theta = 21.16^o[/tex]
So at
[tex]\lambda_1 = 632.9 nm = 632.9*10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
[tex]6 * 10^{-6} * sin (21.16) = n * 632.9 *10^{-9}[/tex]
=> [tex]n = 3[/tex]
