Problem39 16

1) The document discusses the conditions for maximum diffraction based on the diffraction grating equation. 2) It calculates the diffraction angle for orders m=1 and m=2, finding values of 2.07° and 4.14° respectively. 3) Using these angles and approximating small angles as radians, it calculates the diffraction distances y1 and y2, finding a difference between them of 1.81 cm.
