Question 1

Multiple Choice

Single-slit diffraction: A single slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an angle of 40.0° from central maximum, when monochromatic light of 630-nm wavelength is used. The same slit, illuminated by a new monochromatic light source, produces a diffraction pattern with the second minimum at a 60.0° angle from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of this new light?


A) 425 nm
B) 450 nm
C) 475 nm
D) 500 nm
E) 525 nm
