A diffraction grating is made up of slits of width 400 nm with separation 1100 nm. The grating is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves of wavelength λ = 720 nm at normal incidence. (a) How many maxima are there in the full diffraction pattern? (b) What is the angular width of a spectral line observed in the first order if the grating has 960 slits?
