Question
In a double-slit experiment, the fourth-order maximum for a
wavelength of 450 nm occurs at an angle of u = 90°. (a) What range
of wavelengths in the visible range (400 nm to 700 nm) are not
present in the third-order maxima? To eliminate all visible light in
the fourth-order maximum, (b) should the slit separation be increased
or decreased and (c) what least change is needed?
