Explanation Given info: The wavelength of the incident light is 632.8 nm , the separation between the slits is 30.0 μm and the slit width is 2.00 μm . The condition to obtain maxima from the two slit interference is, sin θ bright = m double λ d (1) Here, m double is the order of the double slit interference where maxima occurs. d is the separation between the slits. θ bright is the angle for which bright fringe or maxima is obtained. λ is the wavelength of the incident light. The condition to obtain the minima for the single slit interference is, sin θ dark = m single λ a (2) Here, θ dark is the angle for which minima is obtained. m single is the order of the single slit interference where minima occurs. a is the slit width. Divide equation (1) by (2), sin θ dark sin θ bright = m single λ a m double λ d sin θ dark sin θ bright = m single d

Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the sc…
