Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Diffraction: Problem 51

51 The distance between the first and fifth minima of a single-slit diffraction pattern is 0.50 mm with the screen 40 cm away from the slit, when light of wavelength 420 nm is used. (a) Find the slit width. (b) Calculate the angle \(\theta\) of the first diffraction minimum.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 0.50 mm, 40 cm

Find: (a) Find the slit width; (b) Calculate the angle \
