Answer:
a ) 1.267 radian
b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm
Explanation:
Distance of screen D = 1.65 m
Width of slit d = ?
Wave length of light λ = 687 nm.
Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm
Angle of diffraction = y / D
= 2.09 /1.65
= 1.267. radian
Angle of diffraction of second minimum
= 2 λ / d
so 2 λ / d = 1.267
d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm
=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.
I'll be happy to solve the problem using the information that
you gave in the question, but I have to tell you that this wave
is not infrared light.
If it was a wave of infrared, then its speed would be close
to 300,000,000 m/s, not 6 m/s, and its wavelength would be
less than 0.001 meter, not 12 meters.
For the wave you described . . .
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
= (6 m/s) / (12 m)
= 0.5 / sec
= 0.5 Hz .
(If it were an infrared wave, then its frequency would be
greater than 300,000,000,000 Hz.)
