Blue light travels slower in glass then red and so has a higher index of refraction. That results in a shorter focal length. Search Chromatic aberration in Wikipedia.org, "The World's Encyclopedia"
Newton's rings are a phenomenon of interference patterns created between a flat surface and a spherical surface. The interference patterns provided by a biprism aren't rings like newton's rings, but the spacing between them can help provide some measurement to the near-180 degree angle of the biprism.
In my openion bubbles in the soap film is the real examples of it.
they are formed at the point of contact of lens and glass plate
Yes. The only difference is that with reflected light the central spot will be dark while on the other hand with transmitted light it will be bright.
lasers have a higher coherent length which is an issue
Newton's rings are caused by interference of light waves. When monochromatic light is used, then newton's rings are alternately dark and bright .When white light is used then a few coloured rings are visible.After that due to overlapping of rings of different colours , the rings cannot be viewed. The different colored rings are obtained because of different wavelength of colors. the order of colors depend on order of ring.
You can use newton's rings to measure the refractive index of a substance placed beneath the same lens I'm sure there must be more though .......

Propably because it would be very difficult to measure the difference between the rings' diameters.
Since a plano-convex lens is being used in Newton's Rings .. that's why=the fringes are seen circular from above, on the glass plate.=

newtons ring is formed due to the consequtive circle of different radius of bright and dark in which the centre is dark
How do calculate spiral length of Spiral rings
Biprism produce straight fringe systems while Newton's rings are circular fringe patterns.
