To determine the width of each slit in a double-slit experiment such that we can obtain \( n \) maxima of the double-slit pattern within the central maximum of the single-slit pattern, we need to use the principles of interference and diffraction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Single-Slit Diffraction Pattern**: The width of the central maximum in a single-slit diffraction pattern is determined by the formula: \[ \theta = \frac{\lambda}{a} ...
