A single slit diffraction pattern is formed with light of wavelength 6195 Å . The second secondary maximum for this wavelength coincides with the third secondary maximum in the pattern for light of wavelength ' ₀ '. The value of ' ₀ ' is
Options
- A4180 Å
- B4425 Å
- C5330 Å
- D6235 Å
Correct answer
B. 4425 Å
Step-by-step solution
For n ^ th secondary maximum, array ll & x _ n = (2 n +1) D 2 a & For n =2, & x ₂= 5 D 2 a & and for n =3, x ₃= 7 ₀ D 2 a & Here, x ₂= x ₃ & 5 =7 ₀ & ₀= 5 7 = 5 6195 7 =4425 Å array
