Question

A screen is placed at 2.7 m from a circular aperture of diameter 6.5 \textmu m. A laser beam of wavelength 570 nm passes through the circular aperture which results in a diffraction pattern on the screen. The diffraction pattern consists of a central bright spot called the Airy disk which is surrounded by alternating bright and dark rings. Calculate the diameter of the Airy disk. (a) 58.1 cm (b) 47.5 cm (c) 29.1 cm (d) 23.8 cm
