Textbook Question
Chapter 37, Problem 5P
Assume light of wavelength 650 nm passes through two slits 3.00 μm wide, with their centers 9.00 μm apart. Make a sketch of the combined diffraction and interference pattern in the form of a graph of intensity versus ϕ = (πa sin θ)/λ. You may use Figure 37.7 as a starting point.
