... Information- An experiment was performed that was similar to Young's double slit experiment. One image produced is on the attached sheet. This image resulted from green light of wavelength 520 nm passing through two slits that were separated by 1 mm and then travelled a distance of 80 cm to a screen ...

... This is valid as long as the light does not change the medium through which it propagates (air, water, glass, plastic), or finds an obstacle (interface). The velocity of light in air is c c = 3x108 m/s The velocity of light in other media may be different from c (less than c). ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
