Diffraction of light

In physics, the term diffraction is defined as the bending of light around the corners of the obstacle. As a light ray passes by an aperture, it bends around the edges or through slits, it spreads out through a narrow opening. The diffracted light will produce fringes of bright and dark or colored bands which are labeled as a diffraction pattern.

Question

The light shining on a diffraction grating has a wavelength of 495 nm (in vacuum).
The grating produces a second-order bright fringe at an angle of 9.34o. How many lines
per centimeter does the grating have?
