Question

In a single-slit diffraction experiment, the slit width is 0.185 mm and the wavelength of the light used is 576 nm. (a) Find the angle of a line from the center of the slit to the first dark fringe. (b) You might expect the intensity at one-half the angle found in part (a), which is halfway between the middle of the central bright fringe (where the intensity is I0) and the first dark fringe (where the intensity is zero), to be I0/2. What is the actual intensity at this angle?
