Problem

In a laboratory setup, two slits are separated by 0.25 mm and a screen is placed 1.8 m away. The distance from the central maximum to the first-order bright fringe is measured to be 4.3 mm. What is the wavelength of the light? (a) 9.0×10−7 m9.0\times10^{-7}\,\text{m} (b) 6.0×10−7 m6.0\times10^{-7}\,\text{m} (c) 3.0×10−7 m3.0\times10^{-7}\,\text{m} (d) 1.2×10−6 m1.2\times10^{-6}\,\text{m}
