A diffraction grating is to be used to find the wavelength of the emission spectrum of a gas. The grating spacing is not known, but a light of a known wavelength of 632.8 nm is deflected by 43.2 in the second order by this grating. Light of the wavelength to be measured is deflected by 36.3 in the second order. What is the wavelength of this light in nm?
