Transcribed Image Text:

Two point sources of 500-nm light are separated by a distance of 1 cm. Light from the two sources passes through a narrow slit 10 m away, and then falls on a screen of photographic paper 1 m behind the slit, as in the figure (which is not drawn to scale). What is the minimum width of the slit such that the two images will be resolvable on the photographic paper?
