The angular width of the central maximum...

The angular width of the central maximum in a single slit diffraction pattern is `60^(@)`. The width of the slit is `1 mu m`. The slit is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves. If another slit of same width is made near it, Young’s fringes can be observed on a screen placed at a distance 50 cm from the slits. If the observed fringe width is 1 cm, what is slit separation distance?
(i.e. distance between the centres of each slit.)

A

`100 mum`

B

`25mum`

C

`50mum`

D

`75mum`
