Yellow light is used in a single slit diffraction experiment with a slit width of $0.6 \, mm$. If the yellow light is replaced by $X$-rays,then the pattern will reveal:

Light of wavelength $5000 \, \text{Å}$ is incident on a slit of width $0.1 \, \text{mm}$. Find the width of the central bright fringe on a screen placed at a distance of $2 \, \text{m}$ in $\text{mm}$.

In the far-field diffraction pattern of a single slit under polychromatic illumination,the first minimum with the wavelength ${\lambda _1}$ is found to be coincident with the third maximum at ${\lambda _2}$. So,

The penetration of light into the region of geometrical shadow is called:

$A$ parallel beam of monochromatic light falls normally on a single narrow slit. The angular width of the central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern

Light of wavelength $\lambda = 5000 \ \mathring{A}$ falls normally on a narrow slit. $A$ screen is placed at a distance of $1 \ m$ from the slit and perpendicular to the direction of light. The first minima of the diffraction pattern is situated at $5 \ mm$ from the centre of the central maximum. The width of the slit is ....... $mm$.
