In a double-slit experiment, the third-order maximumfor light of wavelength 480 nm is located 16 mm from thecentral bright spot on a screen 1.6 m from the slits. Light ofwavelength 650 nm is then projected through the sameslits. How far from the central bright spot will the secondorder maximum of this light be located?

Diffraction of light

In physics, the term diffraction is defined as the bending of light around the corners of the obstacle. As a light ray passes by an aperture, it bends around the edges or through slits, it spreads out through a narrow opening. The diffracted light will produce fringes of bright and dark or colored bands which are labeled as a diffraction pattern.
