In an interference arrangement similar to Young's double slit experiment,the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ are illuminated with coherent microwave sources each of frequency $10^6 \ Hz$. The sources are synchronized to have zero phase difference. The slits are separated by distance $d = 150 \ m$. The intensity $I(\theta)$ is measured as a function of $\theta$,where $\theta$ is defined as shown. If $I_0$ is the maximum intensity,then $I(\theta)$ for $0 \le \theta \le 90^\circ$ is given by:

In a Young's double slit experiment,a laser light of $560\,nm$ produces an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of $7.2\,mm$. Now another light is used to produce an interference pattern with consecutive bright fringes' separation of $8.1\,mm$. The wavelength of the second light is $......nm$.
