In a biprism experiment, the distance between $4^{th}$ and $13^{th}$ bright band on the same side is '$y$' when light of wavelength $6000 \text{ Å}$ is used. For a light of wavelength '$\lambda$' the distance between $6^{th}$ and $16^{th}$ bright band on the same side is again '$y$'. The value of '$\lambda$' in $\text{Å}$ units is

In a biprism experiment, the distance of the source from the biprism is $1 \, m$ and the distance of the screen from the biprism is $4 \, m$. The refracting angle of the biprism is $\alpha = 2 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{radians}$. The refractive index $\mu$ of the biprism is $1.5$ and the wavelength of light used is $\lambda = 6000 \, \mathring{A}$. How many fringes will be seen on the screen?
