Light of wavelength 600 nm is incident normally on a slit of width 0.03 cm. The width of the central maximum on the screen placed 1 m away from the slit is
- A 1 mm
- B 2 mm
- C 4 mm
- D 6 mm
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 4 mm
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(W = \frac{2 \lambda D}{a}\) \(W = \frac{2 \times 600 \times 10^{-9} \text{ m} \times 1 \text{ m}}{0.03 \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}}\) \(W = \frac{1200 \times 10^{-9}}{3 \times 10^{-4}}\) m \(W = 400 \times 10^{-5}\) m \(W = 4 \times 10^{-3}\) m \(W = 4\) mm
