Light of wavelength `6000 Å` is incident normally on single slit of width 0.23 mm. Find the angular spread between the central maxima and second-order maxima of diffraction pattern.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the angular spread between the central maxima and the second-order maxima of a single slit diffraction pattern, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for maxima in single slit diffraction The condition for the position of the maxima in a single slit diffraction pattern is given by: \[ b \sin \theta = (2n + 1) \frac{\lambda}{2} \] where: - \( b \) = width of the slit - \( \theta \) = angle of the maxima ...
