Problem

Monochromatic light of wavelength 500 nm500\,\text{nm} produces an interference pattern on a screen 1.2 m1.2\,\text{m} away from two slits separated by 0.40 mm0.40\,\text{mm}. How many complete dark fringes lie between the points located 2.0 mm2.0\,\text{mm} and 7.0 mm7.0\,\text{mm} above the central maximum on the screen?
