Light of wavelength 633 nm from a distant source is incident ona slit 0.750 mm wide, and the resulting diffraction pattern isobserved on a screen 3.50 m away.

a) What is the distance between two darkfringes on either side of the central bright fringe?

b) Suppose the entire experimental apparatus is immersed inwater (n = 1.33). Then what is
the distance between the two dark fringes?

A student shines a red laser pointer with a wavelength of 675 nm through a double-slit apparatus in which the two slits are separated by 75.0 µm. He observes the diffraction pattern on the wall 1.50 m away. What is the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the neighbouring bright fringes on the wall?

Light of wavelength 410 nm (in vacuum) is incident onadiffraction grating that has a slit separation of 1.2x10-5 m. The distance between the grating and theviewingscreen is 0.19 m. A diffraction pattern is produced on thescreenthat consists of a central bright fringe and higher-orderbrightfringes (see the drawing). (a) Determine the distance y fromthecentral bright fringe to the second-order bright fringe. (Hint:Thediffraction angles are small enough that the approximationtan(θ)~ sin(θ) can be used.)(b) If the entire apparatusis submerged inwater (nwater = 1.33), what is thedistance y?
