Answer:
first bright diffraction fringe is from the strong central maximum is 2.6 m
Explanation:
wavelength λ = 610 nm
wide d = 3.50 ×10^−3 mm
screen distance D = 10.0 m
to find out
How far the first bright diffraction fringe
solution
we know here screen 10.0 m away
so for path difference is express as for nth bright fringe is
d × sinθ = ( 2n + 1 ) ( λ /2 ) ...............1
we consider here sinθ = θ
so for distance between central maximum and 1st bright fringe is express as given below
Y = ( 2n + 1 ) ( λ /2 ) ( D/d) .................2
so for n = 1 put all these all we get
Y = ( 2(1) + 1 ) ( 610 ×[tex]10^{-9}[/tex] /2)×(10 / 3.50×[tex]10^{-6}[/tex] )
Y = 2.61 m
so here first bright diffraction fringe is from the strong central maximum is 2.6 m
