Central maximum = d* wavelength/ D
thus
12*10-^3 = 3.4*6.32*10-^7/D
D = 3.4*6.32*10-^7/12*10-^3
D = 1.79*10-^4 m

Answer:
She can swing 1.0 m high.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).
The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:
KE = 1/2 · m · v²
And the potential energy:
PE = m · g · h
Where:
m = mass of Jane.
v = velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).
h = height.
Then:
ME = KE + PE
Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:
ME = KE + PE (PE = 0)
ME = KE
ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²
ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²
When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:
ME = KE + PE (KE = 0)
ME = PE
ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h
Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:
m · 10.125 m²/s² = m · 9.8 m/s² · h
10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s² = h
h = 1.0 m
She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).
Gravity holds the system together
