Problem

A laser produces a third‐order dark fringe at an angle of 0.86∘0.86^{\circ} relative to the central axis after passing through a single slit of width 0.25 mm0.25\,\text{mm}. Without using the small‐angle approximation, determine the wavelength of the laser light. (a) 1.07 μm1.07\,\mu\text{m} (b) 3.75 μm3.75\,\mu\text{m} (c) 1.25 μm1.25\,\mu\text{m} (d) 1.88 μm1.88\,\mu\text{m}
