Light is incident on a diffraction grating with 7200 slits/cm
and the pattern is viewed on a screen located 2.5 m from
the grating. The incident light beam consists of two
wavelengths, d1 = 4.4 × 10-7 m and A2 = 6.8 × 10-7 m.
Calculate the linear distance between the first-order bright
fringes of these two wavelengths on the screen.

The intensity at the center of the pattern is ?0. What is the ratio of the intensity at the center of the pattern to the intensity at a point 3.09 mm from the center of the diffraction pattern (?/?0)?
