Problem

In a Young’s double-slit experiment, light of wavelength 650 nm650\,\text{nm} falls on two slits 0.50 mm0.50\,\text{mm} apart. The screen is placed 1.5 m1.5\,\text{m} away. How many complete bright fringes, including the central maximum, are observed within 4.0 mm4.0\,\text{mm} on either side of the central line on the screen?
