7 (a) Single slit interference

n = 1 and n = 2 K1

First minimum (n = 1):

𝜆 5.9 × 10−7
𝜃1 = 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 ( ) ⇒ 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 ( ) = 6.780 G1
𝑎 5 × 10−6

Second minimum (n = 2):

2𝜆 2 × 5.9 × 10−7
𝜃2 = 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 ( ) = 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 ( ) = 13.650 G1
𝑎 5 × 10−6

The separation between the first and second minima is:

 =  2 − 1 K1
 = 13.65 − 6.78 = 6.87 GJU1

(b) Width of the central bright fringe:
