The distance between the screen and the slits.
Answer to Problem 4PP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The wavelength of the yellow-orange light,
The separation of the slits,
The distance of the first-order yellow band from the central line,
Formula used:
For first order bright band, wavelength can be obtained by using:
Where,
x is the distance of first bright band from the central line on the screen.
d is the distance between slits
L is the distance of screen from the slits.
Calculation:
Using the above mentioned formula and the given values, the distance of the screen from the slits will be,
Conclusion:
Hence, the distance of the screen from the slits is
