Orange light of wavelength6000×10–10 milluminates a single slit of width0.6×10–4 m. The maximum possible number of diffraction minima produced on both sides of the central maximum is __________

Answer:
200.00
Solution:

Light of wavelength 6000 × 10–10 m passes through a single slit of width 0.6 × 10–4 m. Find height of highest order of minima on both side central maxima

for minima 

dsinθ=nλ

sinθ=nλd<1

n≤dλ

n<0.6×10-46000×10-10

n<100

The total number of maxima of both side at central maxima =100+100=200
