Suppose a laser shines through a double slit with separation d. The patern on the screen is .9 m from the slits. The distance between the two bright fringes (△y) is measured in mm. See the attatched plot. What is the wave number for the light in inverse nanometers?

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.
