Two small slits are in a thick wall, 35.0 cm apart. A sound source from the behind the wall emits a sound wave toward the wall at a frequency of 2,000 Hz. Assume the speed of sound is 337 m/s. (a) Find the (positive) angle (in degrees) between the central maximum and next maximum of sound intensity. Measure the angle from the perpendicular bisector of the line between the slits.

What would the slit separation (in cm) have to be in order to give the same angle between central and next maximum of intensity as found in part (a)? cm (c) The microwave antenna is now replaced by a monochromatic light source.
