In a double slit arrangement, the slits are separated by a distance equal to 100 times the wavelength of the light passing through the slits. (a) What is the angular separation in radian between the central maximum and an adjacent maximum? (b) What is the distance between these maxima on a screen 50.0 cm from the slits?

Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will break it down into two parts as per the question.

### Part (a): Angular Separation

1. **Identify the given values:**
- Distance between the slits, \( d = 100 \lambda \)
- Wavelength of light, \( \lambda \) (we will keep it as a variable for now)
