If the distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern is 18 mm and the slits are separated by 0.15 mm with the screen 50 cm from the slits, what is the wavelength of the light used

Respuesta :

Answer:

Wavelength of light is 600 nm

Explanation:

Given

Distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern = 18 mm

Separation between the slits = 0.15 mm

Distance of screen from the slits = 50 cm

Wavelength

[tex]= \frac{18*10^{-3} * 0.15 *10^{-3}}{0.50*9} \\= 6 *10^{-7}\\= 600[/tex]nm
