Monochromatic light with a wavelength of 6.4 E -7 meter passes through two narrow slits, producing an interference pattern on a screen 4.0 meters away. The first order bright band lines are 2.0 E -2 meters away from the central bright maxima.

What is the distance between the slits?

  1. lambda = XS/D

    where: lambda=wavelength, X=distance between band lines, S=slit separation, D=distance between pattern and screen.

    substitute:

    6.4 E -7 = (2.0 E -2)S / 4

    S = 1.28 E -4
