The figure shows a double slit located a distance x = 2.85 m from a screen, with the distance from the center of the screen to a bright fringe given by y. When the distance d between the slits is large compared to the wavelength λ, there will be numerous such bright fringes.

The analysis of any two-point source interference pattern and a successful determination of wavelength demands an ability to sort through the measured information and equating the values with the symbols in Young's equation. Apply your understanding by interpreting the following statements and identifying the values of y, d, m and L. Finally, perform some conversions of the given information such that all information share the same unit. Two slits that are 0.200 mm apart produce an interference pattern on a screen such that the central maximum and the 10th bright band are distanced by an amount equal to one-tenth the distance from the slits to the screen. y= ________ d=________ m=_______ L=________
A student performs a standard two-slit interference experiment and carefully sketches the observed interference pattern. The red colored pencil used by the student may not precisely match the actual color of the coherent light source. The position of the second-order maximum, corresponding to two full wavelengths of path difference from the two slits, is most nearly 35.0cm. The position of the third-order minimum of intensity, corresponding to two and one-half wavelengths of path difference for rays arriving from the two slits, is most nearly 43.8cm. 1.
