Question:
The single-slit diffraction pattern of light is observed on a screen a large distance L from the slit. Note from Equation 35-12 that the width 2y of the central maximum varies inversely with the width a of the slit. Calculate the width 2y for L = 2 m, λ = 500 nm, and
(a) a = 0.1 mm,
(b) a = 0.01 mm, and
(c) a = 0.001mm.
