Chapter 35, Problem 42P

(choose chapter or problem)

In a setup similar to that of Problem 35.41, the glass has an index of refraction of 1.53, the plates are each 8.00 cm long, and the metal foil is 0.015 mm thick. The space between the plates is filled with a jelly whose refractive index is not known precisely, but is known to be greater than that of the glass. When you illuminate these plates from above with light of wavelength 525 nm, you observe a series of equally spaced dark fringes in the reflected light. You measure the spacing of these fringes and find that there are 10 of them every 6.33 mm. What is the index of refraction of the jelly?
