Problem

A plate of thickness tt, made of a material of refractive index μ\mu, is placed in front of one slit in a double-slit experiment. The additional optical path difference and the minimum thickness required to obtain darkness at the centre are, respectively, (a) (μ−1)t, λ2(μ−1)(\mu-1)t,\ \frac{\lambda}{2(\mu-1)} (b) 2(μ−1)t, λμ−12(\mu-1)t,\ \frac{\lambda}{\mu-1} (c) (μ−1)t, λμ−1(\mu-1)t,\ \frac{\lambda}{\mu-1} (d) (μ−1)t2, λμ−1\frac{(\mu-1)t}{2},\ \frac{\lambda}{\mu-1}
