Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

Question

Determine the speed, wavelength and frequency of a beam of red light (wavelength in air is 700 nm) in a glass crystal whose index of refraction is 2.00.
