A single slit diffraction pattern is formed with light of wavelength \(6384 Å\). The second secondary maximum for this wavelength coincides with the third secondary maximum in the pattern for light of wavelength ' \(\lambda_0^{\prime}\). The value of ' \(\lambda_0^{\prime}\) is

  1. A \(4242 Å\)
  2. B \(4560 Å\)
  3. C \(5474 Å\)
  4. D \(6384 Å\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(4560 Å\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\((m_1 + 0.5)\lambda_1 = (m_2 + 0.5)\lambda_0'\) \((2 + 0.5) \times 6384 Å = (3 + 0.5) \times \lambda_0'\)
