Question: A highly collimated ( parallel ) beam of electrons is shot through a single slit of width 1 7 . 7 1 7 . 7

A highly collimated (parallel) beam of electrons is shot through a single slit of width 17.717.7m. The electrons are moving with a speed of 8.728.72km/s. When they hit the screen, located at distance 1.651.65m away, the distribution of hitting positions makes an interference pattern with a central peak and minima on either side.
