Can you show the solution and steps

1.) In an experiment involving a diffraction grating where a screen is place 2 meters behind the grating and light with a wavelength lambda= 6.8x10^(-7) meters is used, the distance from the central bright fringe to the first order bright fringe is y=4.9 cm.

What is the distance between the lines of the diffraction grating in micrometers?

2.) A telescope with a lens diameter of 0.85 m is used to view two planets at the same time.

Assuming light coming from the stars has an average wavelength of 480 nm, what is the approximate minimum angular separation (theta) of the two planets in radians?

1) For a certain diffraction grating experiment using 500-nm light, the third dark fringe above the center line occurs at an angle of 30° above the center line. The screen is 6.00m from the slits. Why is this angle larger than the angle for the double-slit experiment above using the same wavelength of light? [Ignore any effects of single-slit diffraction.] Group of answer choices these diffraction grating slits are more closely-spaced these diffraction grating slits are spaced farther apart from...
