Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the distance between the bright interference fringes created by the laser beam incident on two slits, we can use the formula for the spacing between fringes in a double-slit interference pattern:

d = λL / (D * w)

Where:

- d is the distance between bright interference fringes (also known as the fringe spacing)

- λ is the wavelength of the light (632.8 nm)

- L is the distance from the double-slit to the screen (the distance at which the interference pattern is observed)

- D is the distance between the two slits (0.200 mm or 0.200 × 10^-3 m)

- w is the order of the fringe (for the bright fringes, w = 1)

Plugging in the values into the formula:

d = (632.8 nm) * L / [(0.200 × 10^-3 m) * 1]

To find the distance between bright interference fringes, we need the value of L (distance from the double-slit to the screen). Without that information, we cannot determine the exact value of d.
