Coherent light that contains two wavelengths, 660 nm (red) and 470 nm (blue), passes through two narrow slits that are separated by 0.460 mm. Their interference pattern is observed on a screen 4.00m fromthe slits. What is the distance on the screen between the first - order bright fringes for the two wavelength?
