When you look at a clear blue sky, you see tiny specks and hair-like structures floating in your view, called "floaters". This is basically

Write the condition of $n^{th}$ order maximum in diffraction.

$A$ Fraunhofer diffraction pattern due to a single slit of width $0.3 \text{ mm}$ is obtained on a screen placed at a distance of $3 \text{ m}$ from the slit. The first minima lie at $5.5 \text{ mm}$ on either side of the central maximum on the screen. The wavelength of light used is (in $\text{ Å}$)

In deriving the single slit diffraction pattern,it is stated that the intensity is zero at angles of $\theta = n\lambda / a$,where $a$ is the slit width. Justify this by suitably dividing the slit to bring out the cancellation.

The position of the direct image obtained at $O$,when a monochromatic beam of light is passed through a plane transmission grating at normal incidence,is shown in the figure. The diffracted images $A, B$,and $C$ correspond to the first,second,and third-order diffraction. When the source is replaced by another source of shorter wavelength,then:

$A$ diffraction pattern is formed by blue light. If the blue light is replaced by yellow light, then . . . . . . .
