  • A
    bands will be narrower
  • B
    bands become broader
  • C

In a single slit diffraction pattern,the intensity and width of the fringes are:

If we observe the single slit Fraunhofer diffraction with wavelength $\lambda$ and slit width $e$,the width of the central maxima is $2\theta$. On decreasing the slit width for the same $\lambda$,what happens to $\theta$?

$A$ beam of light of $\lambda = 600 \, nm$ from a distant source falls on a single slit $1 \, mm$ wide and the resulting diffraction pattern is observed on a screen $2 \, m$ away. The distance between the first dark fringes on either side of the central bright fringe is:

$A$ plane wavefront $(\lambda = 6 \times 10^{-7} \, m)$ falls on a slit $0.4 \, mm$ wide. $A$ convex lens of focal length $0.8 \, m$ placed behind the slit focuses the light on a screen. What is the linear diameter of the second maximum in $mm$?

If $I_0$ is the intensity of the principal maximum in the single slit diffraction pattern,then what will be the intensity when the slit width is doubled?
