Light is incident on two slits that are separated by 0.55 mm. A two-slit interference pattern is created on a screen that is 1.2 m away. The 1st order maximum occurs 0.45 cm away from the 0th order maximum. What is the angle (in degrees) for the 1st order maximum?
Draw a picture of this situation BEFORE you try to solve the problem. Pay attention to your UNITS!
What is the wavelength (in nm) of the light?
(Two slit interference is often used to determine the wavelength of
a light source)

Two slit interference: Two slits separated by 4 μm are illuminated by light of wavelength λ=500 nm incident normally on the slit. (a) Draw a diagram showing the waves leaving the slit that will eventually converge on a distant point at the second (m=2) interference maximum above the central maximum. (b) Calculate the angle of light at which this maximum is formed. (c) What is the distance between interference maxima on a screen placed 2 m from the slits? d)...

Two narrow slits are used to produce a double-slit interference pattern with monochromatic light. The slits are separated by 7 mm, and the interference pattern is projected onto a screen 7 m away from the slits. The central bright fringe is at a certain spot on the screen. Using a ruler with one end placed at the central fringe, you move along the ruler passing by two more bright fringes and find that the next bright fringe is 21.5 mm...

Two narrow slits are separated by a distance d. Their interference pattern is to be observed on a screen a large distance L away. Calculate the spacing y of the maxima of the screen for light of wavelength 500 nm when L = 1 m and d = 1 cm. Would you expect to observe the interference of light on the screen for this situation? Explain. How close together should the slits be placed for the maxima to be separated...
