Detailed Solution

let the nth bright fringe of wavelength λm and m th Bright fringe of wavelength λm coincide at a distance x n from central maximum .then xn=nλnD2d=mλmD2d or mn=λnλm=650nm520nm=54 So, least integral values of m and n satisfying above requhemeDt are m = 5andn= 4 Smallest value of xn, is given by  xnmin=nλnDd=4×650×10−9×1.202×10−3 = 1.56 mm
