Light of wavelength (6.760x10^2) nm falls on two slits and produces an interferenc pattern in which the fourth-order fringe is (4.992x10^1) mm from the central fringe on a screen (1.46x10^0) m away. What is the separation of the two slits - in micrometres to 3 sf? Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.

Light of wavelength 588.2 nm illuminates a slit of width 0.63 mm. (a) At what distance from the slit should a screen be placed if the first minimum in the diffraction pattern is to be 0.86 mm from the central maximum? (b) Calculate the width of the central maximum. Step 1 (a) As shown in the figure, dark bands or minima occur where sin 0 = m(2/a). For the first minimum, m = 1 and the distance from the center of the central maximum to the first minimum is y₁ = L tan 8, where L is the distance of the viewing screen from the slit. 32 sin dark = 22/a 31 sin dark = λ/a HE 0 -1 sin dark = -λ/a -2 sin dark = -22/a Viewing screen a Because is very small, we can use the approximation tan sin 0 = m(2/a).
