Question

As shown the fringes observed in a doubleslit interference experiment
when the two slits are illuminated by white light. The central maximum is white because all of the colors overlap. This is not true for the other fringes. The m = 1 fringe clearly shows bands of color, with red appearing farther from the center of the pattern, and blue closer. If the slits that create this pattern are 20 μm apart and are located 0.85 m from the screen, what
are the m = 1 distances from the central maximum for red (700 nm) and violet (400 nm) light?
