In a single slit diffraction experiment, a parallel beam of green light of wavelength $\lambda = 550 \,nm$ passes through a slit of width $a = 0.20 \,mm$. The transmitted light is collected on a screen at a distance $D = 100 \,cm$ away. The distance of the first-order minima from the central maximum is $x \times 10^{-5} \,m$. The value of $x$ is:

In a single slit diffraction pattern,the distance between the plane of the slit and the screen is $1.3 \ m$. The width of the slit is $0.65 \ mm$ and the second maximum is formed at a distance of $2.6 \ mm$ from the center of the screen. The wavelength of light used is: (in $Å$)
