You perform a double‑slit experiment in order to measure the wavelength of the new laser that you received for your birthday. You set your slit spacing at 1.13 m and place your screen 8.75 m from the slits. Then, you illuminate the slits with your new toy and find on the screen that the tenth bright fringe is 4.72 cm away from the central bright fringe (counted as the zeroth bright fringe).

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.
