In a lecture demonstration, a laser beam of wavelength 700 nm passes through a vertical slit 0.5
Question:
In a lecture demonstration, a laser beam of wavelength 700 nm passes through a vertical slit 0.5 mm wide and hits a screen 6 m away. Find the horizontal length of the principal diffraction maximum on the screen; that is, find the distance between the first minimum on the left and the first minimum on the right of the central maximum.
