A slit 0.240 mm wide is illuminated by parallel light rays of wavelength 540 nm. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen that is 3.00 m from the slit. The intensity at the center of the central maximum (θ = 0o) is 6.00 x 10-6 W/m2.
(a) What is the distance on the screen from the center of the central maximum to the first minimum?
(b) What is the intensity at a point on the screen midway between the center of the central maximum and the first minimum?
