Question: Yellow light ( lambda = 5 8 0 nm ) is incident upon a diffraction grating which has 7 0 0 lines per millimeter.

Yellow light (\lambda =580 nm) is incident upon a diffraction grating which has 700 lines per millimeter. The first bright spot is found to be 68 cm away from the center. If you,
instead, shine blue light (\lambda =460 nm) on this grating, where will the first bright spot be located? Please include calculations including the distance and angle of the blue light.
