The spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

<h3>What is double slit experiment?</h3>

The double-slit experiment serves as a proof in current physics that both light and matter may exhibit properties of classically defined waves and particles. It also illustrates the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical events. Thomas Young carried out the first experiment of this kind employing light in 1802, illustrating how light behaves like a wave. It was formerly believed that light was made up of either waves or particles. About a century later, with the advent of modern physics, it was discovered that light may in fact exhibit behaviour like that of both waves and particles. The identical behaviour of electrons was first shown by Davisson and Germer in 1927, and it was later extended to atoms and molecules.

The separation between the slits, d = 0.05mm = 5×10⁻⁵ m

The distance from the slits to a screen, D = 2.5 m

Let x is the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits,

λ = 600nm = 6× 10⁻⁷ m  

We know that the bright fringe is given by :

y = nλD/d

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is :

x = 2λD/d - λD/d

x =  λD/d

x = 6 × 10⁻⁷ × 2.5/5 × 10⁻⁵

x = 0.03 m

or

x = 3 cm

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following devices is associated with the reception of radio signals?
ki77a [65]
What are the "following" devices ? ?
I think they're a list of choices that you have but aren't sharing.

A few devices associated with the reception of various types of
radio signals include the resonant tank, the local oscillator, the
mixer, the detector, the coherer, the discriminator, the parabolic
reflector, the lecher wires, the audio transducer, the demultiplexer,
and ... my personal guess ... the 'antenna' or 'aerial'.
