Question:

In a two-slit setup, each slit is 0.020 mm wide. These apertures are illuminated by plane waves of yellow sodium light (λ = 589.6 nm). The resulting Fraunhofer fringe pattern consists of 11 narrow bright fringes that gradually decrease in irradiance with distance from the central maximum. Determine the separation between the slits.
