Slits and Diffraction 1) Use ideas from Waves Interference about what happens to waves passing through slits to help make sense of why light passing through a round hole makes a pattern. Explain what is happening\ 2)Compare patterns of varying slit size to patterns of varying hole size. 3)Compare patterns of varying frequency through slits to patterns of varying wavelength through holes
