A microwave of wavelength \(2.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) falls normally on a slit of w1dth \(4.0 \mathrm{~cm}\). The angular spread of the central maxima of the diffraction pattern obtained on a screen \(1.5 \mathrm{~m}\) away from the slit, will be _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(60^{\circ}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For first minima a \(\sin \theta=\lambda\)
\(\sin \theta=\frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{a}}=\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\theta=30^{\circ}\)
Angular spread \(=60^{\circ}\)
