$A$ light source with a wavelength of $5000 \, \mathring A$ produces a single-slit diffraction pattern. The first minimum in the diffraction pattern is observed at a distance of $5 \, mm$ from the central maximum. The distance between the slit and the screen is $2 \, m$. Find the width of the slit. (in $, mm$)

$A$ beam of light of $\lambda = 600 \, nm$ from a distant source falls on a single slit $1 \, mm$ wide and the resulting diffraction pattern is observed on a screen $2 \, m$ away. The distance between the first dark fringes on either side of the central bright fringe is:

Define diffraction.
