Final answer:
There are zero bright interference fringes in the central diffraction maximum and zero bright interference fringes in the whole pattern.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of bright interference fringes in the central diffraction maximum can be found using the formula:
n = (d*sin(theta))/lambda
where n is the number of fringes, d is the distance between the slits, theta is the angle of the fringes, and lambda is the wavelength of the light.
In this case, the distance between the slits is 185 μm and the wavelength is 595 nm. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
n = (185*10^-6*sin(0))/595*10^-9
n = 0
Therefore, there are zero bright interference fringes in the central diffraction maximum.
To find the number of bright interference fringes in the whole pattern, we can use a similar formula:
N = (D*sin(0))/lambda
where N is the number of fringes, D is the distance between the slits, and theta is the angle of the fringes.
In this case, the distance between the slits is 185 μm and the wavelength is 595 nm. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
N = (185*10^-6*sin(0))/595*10^-9
N = 0
Therefore, there are zero bright interference fringes in the whole pattern.
