$A$ 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 $\text{ Å}$)

  • A
    $6000$
  • B
    $5500$
  • C
    $4500$
  • D
