    Interference Jones and the number of bright bands

    Constructive interference occurs when the light paths differ by a multiple of the wavelength and they combine and make a wave with a greater amplitude right? So the m\lambda part of the equation I did was right, right? Bright fringes occur when dsin\theta = m\lambda . But how do I determine the...
