Answer:
10.2 m
Explanation:
The position of the dark fringes (destructive interference) formed on a distant screen in the interference pattern produced by diffraction from a single slit are given by the formula:
where
y is the position of the m-th minimum
m is the order of the minimum
D is the distance of the screen from the slit
d is the width of the slit
is the wavelength of the light used
In this problem we have:
is the wavelength of the light
is the width of the slit
m = 13 is the order of the minimum
is the distance of the 13th dark fringe from the central maximum
Solving for D, we find the distance of the screen from the slit:
