Monochromatic light of wavelength 500 nm500 \mathrm{~nm}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 =1.5=1.5=1.5 ), the central maximum is shifted to a position previously occupied by the 4th 4^{\text {th }}4th  bright fringe. The thickness of the glass-plate is ______ μm\mu \mathrm{m}μm.
