Monochromatic red light with a wavelength of 660nm is incident on a pair of narrow slits that are separated by a distance of 4.00×10^4
*m. A viewing screen is placed a distance of 120cm behind the
slits to observe the intensity pattern of the light after passing through the slits.
a) Relative to the center of the pattern, where is the center of the third bright fringe?
A sodium gas-discharge lamp emits a visible "doublet" of two spectral emission lines, one at 589.0nm and the other at 589.6nm.
(a) How many slits/cm are required for a transmission diffraction grating that is 2.5 cm wide to distinctly resolve these two lines at first order (m=1) ?
(b) At second order (m=2) ?
