Question:

1. In one experiment, blue light passes through a diffraction grating and forms an interference pattern on a screen. In a second experiment, red light passes through the same diffraction grating and forms another interference pattern. How do the separations between bright lines in the two experiments compare with each other?
2. In one experiment, light from a laser passes through a double slit and forms an interference pattern on a distant screen. The experiment is repeated after increasing the slit separation by 50%. In which experiment is the distance from the central maximum to the next maximum the greatest?
