In Young's double-slit experiment, the slits are separated by \(0.28\) mm and the screen is placed \(1.4\) m away. The distance between the first dark fringe and the fourth bright fringe is obtained to be \(0.6\) cm. The wavelength of the light used in the experiment is:
1. \(3.4 \times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\)
2. \(4.1 \times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\)
3. \(3.4 \times 10^{-9}~\text{m}\)
