Given information

Wavelength of light having bright fringe  

Refractive index of coating    

Refractive index of lens material = 1.52. 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The refractive index of glass material is 1.52 , which is more than refractive index of coating which is applied on it .

Hence , Hence two reflected rays involved in the interference come from material having greater refractive index . So, 

the condition for constructive interference is given as follows .

Path difference   

   

Here d is thickness of coating , n is an integer. 

For minimum thickness ,
