Two spectral lines of sodium D1 and D2 h...

Two spectral lines of sodium `D_1` and `D_2` have wavelength of approximately `5890 overset (@)(A)` and `5896 overset (@)(A)`. A sodium lamp sends incident plane wave onto a slit of width `2 xx 10^-6 m`.A screen is located 2 m from the slit. Find the spacing between the first maxima of two sodium lines as measured on the screen.
