A double slit is illuminated by a monochromatic light. An interference pattern is observed on ascreen with fine lines grouped in broad bands (see diagram below). The second series of fringes iscentered at a distance zo=2.7 mm from the center of the screen. The distance between slits andscreen is D=2m, the slits width is d=0.07mm and the slit separation is 0.5mm.(a) What is the wavelength of the light? What color is it? Is the small angle approximation valid?(b) How many full fringes are observed in the second band? (do not count them on theschematic diagram!)Viewing screenZoន
