Answer:

6000 lines/cm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Grating 1=4000 lines/cm

Grating 2=6000 lines/cm

Generally The Spread of fringes is Larger when the Grating are closer to each other

Therefore

Grating 2 will spread the the light through a larger angle in the first-order pattern because its the closest with 6000 lines/cm
