b. How far apart do the two third order maxima appear on the screen?
2. Coherent light with an unknown wavelength is incident on a double slit with a slit separation of
4.05 um. The screen is placed 60 cm behind the slits and the first order maxima is 5.2 cm from the
central maxima.
a. What wavelength of light is incident on the slits?
