1. You have a laser with wavelength = 638.5 nm. The grating has a slit spacing of 0 mm. What is the angle measured for n=1?
angle is in radians


Use three sig. figs.; or use N/A, if not enough information is given.

2. You have a laser with wavelength (λ) 640 nm. You shine it through a diffraction grating of 400 lines per millimeter. (The diffraction grating doesn't change the wavelength, it simply changes the direction in a matter of speaking.) You measure the distance to a screen to be 20.3 cm. You measure the second dot in millimeters from the center dot.
What is the wavelength of the laser light?
answer in [nanometer].

Answer #1

Answer: 1) given that d = 0 mm which does not yield theta value. So i assumed d = 1.666E-06 mm, in case you have some "d" value substitute in the following manner.

1. Laser beam with wavelength 632.8 nm is aimed perpendicularly at opaque screen with two identical slits on it, positioned horizontally, and close enough to each other so that both of them fall in the beam. A precise positioning shield is used to cover alternatively one of the slits, while the other remains open. On an observation screen positioned 1 meter further from the opaque screen, the diffraction patterns from the independent slit illumination were found identical, with minima 4.0...
