Your friend has been given a laser for her birthday. Unfortunately, she did not receive a manual with it and so she doesn't know the wavelength that it emits. You help her by performing a double-slit experiment, with slits separated by 0.36 mm. You find that the two m n = 2 bright fringes are 5.5 mm apart on a screen 1.6 m from the slits. a. What is the wavelength the light emits?
b. What is the distance between the two n = 1 dark fringes?

a) the wavelength that the light emits is 6.1875 × 10⁻⁷ m

b) the distance between the two n = 1 dark fringes is 5.5 × 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

separation  between two slits  d = 0.36 mm = 0.00036 m

Separation between two adjacent fringes β = 5.5 mm = 0.0055 m

Distance of screen from slits D = 1.6 m

n = 2

a) the wavelength the light emits;

Using the formula;

β = (nD/d)λ

To find wavelength, we make λ the subject of formula;

βd = nDλ

λ = βd / nD

so we substitute

λ = ( 0.0055 m × 0.00036 m ) / ( 2 × 1.6 m )

λ = 0.00000198 / 3.2

λ = 6.1875 × 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore, the wavelength that the light emits is 6.1875 × 10⁻⁷ m

b) the distance between the two n = 1 dark fringes;

To find the distance between the two n = 1 dark fringes, we use the following formula;

y = 2nλD / d

given that n = 1, we substitute

y = ( 2 × 1 × ( 6.1875 × 10⁻⁷ m ) × 1.6 m ) / 0.00036 m

y = 0.00000198 / 0.00036

y = 0.0055 m

y = 5.5 × 10⁻³ m

Therefore, the distance between the two n = 1 dark fringes is 5.5 × 10⁻³ m

i guess that visual aids present persuasive examples to what you are presenting, some factors would be theme (does it fit with the color, information, what you are presenting), size (can you see it, is it a big enough span of data/information), and overall look of the visual aid.

hope this : )
