Answer: i) 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm, ii) 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm
Explanation: The formulae that relates the position of a fringe from the center to the wavelength, distance between slits and distance between slits and screen is given below as
y = R×(mλ/d)
Where y = distance between nth fringes and the center fringe.
m = order of fringe
λ = wavelength of light = 589nm = 589×10^-9m
R = distance between slits and screen = 1.0m
d = distance between slits = 0.25mm = 0.00025m
For distance between the first dark fringe and the center fringe.
This implies that m = 1
y = 1 × 589×10^-9 × 1/0.00025
y = 589×10^-9/0.00025
y = 2,356,000 × 10^-9
y = 2.356 × 10^-3 m = 2.356mm
For the second dark fringe, this implies that m = 2
y = 1 × 2 × 589×10^-9/0.00025
y = 1178 × 10^-9 /0.00025
y = 4,712,000 × 10^-9
y = 4.712 × 10^-3 m = 4.712mm

Answer:
So a=3.844 and b=5
Explanation:
Scientific notation requests to write a number using powers of ten as a factor accompanying a real number (a) between 1 and smaller than 10 that contains the digits to exactly represent the original number. So in this case, the number 384,400 can be written as:
with a=3.844, and "5" as the exponent of ten (so b=5)
