Question

1. A double-slit experiment is carried out using red light of wavelength 640 nm, and results in a spacing of 1.24 mm for the bright fringes. What is the expected spacing if violet light of wavelength 420 nm is used? 2. Suppose that monochromatic light that has a wavelength of 622 nm passes through a single slit, 0.0642 mm wide, that is 0.535 m from a screen. What is the width of the central band?
