In Example 3.6, if you estimate that you might have missed as many as five fringes when you reported m=122 fringes, (a) is the value for the index of refraction worked out in Example 3.6 too large or too small?

(This is in contrast to having only the first and third, which reduces the intensity to zero, so that placing the second between them increases the intensity of the transmitted light.)arrow_forward
