Question

between adjacent maxima. You observe that this separation is greatest when you illuminate the double slit with In a double-slit interference experiment you are asked to use laser light of different wavelengths and determine the separation between adjacent maxima. You observe that this separation is greatest when you illuminate the double slit with:_________.
1. yellow light.
2. red light.
3. blue light.
4. green light.
5. The separation is the same for all wavelengths.

Answer 1

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

This because All interference or diffraction patterns depend upon the wavelength of the light (or whatever wave) involved. Red light has the longest wavelength (about 700 nm)
