Chapter 35.4, Problem 35.5CE
When we studied Young’s double-slit experiment, we mostly ignored the dark fringe pattern produced by diffraction. Use Figure 35.21 to describe situations in which that omission makes sense. Think especially about the single slit used in front of the double slit in Young’s experiment (Fig. 35.9).
