Abstract
This study discussed the effect of thickness of the glass inserted in front of the mirror of Michelson interferometer.The experiments show that for different distance between the lens and the mirror,there exists a critical position that makes the interference fringes to move in a reversed direction.Through the experiment we have found the relationship between the critical position and the distance between the lens and the mirror.
