In a single slit diffraction pattern,a light of wavelength $6000 \mathring A$ is used. The distance between the first and third minima in the diffraction pattern is found to be $3 \text{ mm}$ when the screen is placed $50 \text{ cm}$ away from the slit. The width of the slit is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-4} \text{ m}$.
