A Thin Beam of Light of Wavelength 625 Nm Goes

Question 13

Short Answer

A thin beam of light of wavelength 625 nm goes through a thin slit and falls on a screen 3.00 m past the slit. You observe that the first completely dark fringes occur on the screen at distances of ±8.24 mm from the central bright fringe, and that the central bright fringe has an intensity of 2.00 W/m2 at its center.
(a) How wide is the slit?
