Question
Two narrow, parallel slits separated by 0.850 mm are illuminated by 570-nm light, and the viewing screen is 2.60 m away from the slits.
(a) What is the phase difference between the two interfering waves on a screen at a point 2.50 mm from the central bright fringe?
9
rad
(b) What is the ratio of the intensity at this point to the intensity at the center of a bright fringe?
I
= 0.9938 X
Imax
Can you use the small-angle approximation in this problem?
