Question
### Young’s Double-Slit Experiment

#### Context

Light of 650 nm wavelength illuminates a single slit of width 0.15 mm. The graph in Figure 1 shows the intensity pattern seen on a screen behind the slit.

#### Graph Description

**Figure 1:** The graph plots the intensity of light (on the y-axis) against the position on the screen (on the x-axis, labeled in cm). The intensity has a prominent central peak around the position of 1 cm, which then drops off sharply towards either side. This central peak is followed by smaller secondary peaks, indicating the diffraction pattern commonly seen with single-slit experiments. The secondary peaks are less intense and occur symmetrically around the central maximum.

#### Question

**Part A:** What is the distance to the screen?

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Provide the value in the input field labeled `L`.

**Input Field for Distance (L):**
- Value: 
- Units:
