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 
), the central maximum is shifted to a position previously occupied by the 
bright fringe. The thickness of the glass-plate is________ 
.
