$A$ single slit of width $0.1\, mm$ is illuminated by a parallel beam of light of wavelength $6000\, \mathring{A}$ and diffraction bands are observed on a screen $0.5\, m$ from the slit. The distance of the third dark band from the central bright band is ........ $mm$.

What happens if we close one slit in a Young's double-slit experiment?

The angular deviation of the $5^{th}$ order dark fringe is $12^{\circ}$ in a single slit experiment. If the width of the slit is $9 \mu m$, then the wavelength of the incident light is: (in $Å$)

At the first minimum adjacent to the central maximum of a single-slit diffraction pattern,the phase difference between the Huygens' wavelet from the edge of the slit and the wavelet from the midpoint of the slit is

Two slits are $1 \,mm$ apart and the screen is located $1 \,m$ away from the slits. $A$ light of wavelength $500 \,nm$ is used. The width of each slit to obtain $10$ maxima of the double slit pattern within the central maximum of the single slit pattern is $\ldots \ldots \ldots \times 10^{-4} \,m$.
