The figure shows a Young's double slit experimental setup. It is observed that when a thin transparent sheet of thickness $t$ and refractive index $\mu$ is placed in front of one of the slits,the central maximum shifts by a distance equal to $n$ fringe widths. If the wavelength of light used is $\lambda$,then $t$ will be:

$A$ plate of refractive index $1.6$ is introduced in the path of light from one of the slits in Young's double slit experiment,then:
