Explanation Introduction: For a grating with slit separation distance d , bright band occurs at an angle which can be determined by the expression, sin θ m = m λ d Here, m denotes the number of bright bands from central maxima, λ denotes the wavelength of light , and d denotes the slit separation distance. Explanation: For the third order bright band, Write the expression for the angular deflection, sin θ 3 = 3 ⋅ λ A d For the second-order bright band, Write the expression for angular deflection, sin θ 2 = 2 ⋅ λ B d Since, the angular deflection is the same, θ 2 = θ 3 This implies, sin θ 2 = sin θ 3 Substitute 2</
