Assume that light of wavelength 532 nm strikes the top of two plates of glass nearly perpendicularly. The glass plates are in contact at one edge and separated by a thin sheet of paper at the other edge forming a narrow wedge of air between the two plates. The paper has a thickness of 4.10970×10-5 m. Determine the number of bright fringes that occur from the place where the plates touch to the edge of the sheet of paper.
I've tried the formula m= (2*thickness)/wavelength -.5. I got 154 and it didn't work.
