Monochromatic light of wavelength 500 nm is used in Young's double slit experiment. An interference pattern is obtained on a screen. When one of the slits is covered with a very thin glass plate (refractive index = 1.5), the central maximum is shifted to a position previously occupied by the 4th bright fringe. The thickness of the glass-plate i s ______ μm.
