Q. Monochromatic electromagnetic radiation with wavelength lambda from a distant source passes through a slit. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 2.50 rm m from the slit.
If the width of the central maximum is 6.00 rm mm, what is the slit width a if the wavelength is 500 rm nm (visible light)?
