Red light (Ared = 653 nm) and green light (Agreen = 539 nm) both pass through a diffraction grating create overlapping interference patterns on a detector 1.56 m away. On the detector, the separation from the first bright green maximum to the first bright red maximum is measured to b 3.79 mm. How many slits per cm does the diffraction grating have? Give your answer as a whole number of slits per cm.
