A double-slit interference pattern is observed on a screen with the intensity graph. Points A, B, C, D, and E are bright fringes. Points F, G, H, I, J, and K are dark fringes. The wavelength of the green light is 560 nm. The distance between the two slits is 0.40 mm, and the distance between the screen and the slit is 2.0 m. What is the distance between fringes H and A, in mm? Please explain with the math
