Two thin slits separated by 0.0634 mm are illuminated by light from a He-Ne laser (? = 633 nm), producing interference fringes on a distant screen. Find the angle between the centers of the central bright fringe and the next bright fringe.

Given:

distance between the slits d = 0.0634 mm

                                            = wavelength of the He-Ne laer (?) = 633 nm

                                                      = 633*10-9 m

......................................................................................................

bright fringes are at an angle from the central bright fringe

? = sin-1 (2?/d) ...... (1)

plug the values in equation 1 we have

? = sin-1 (2*633*10-9 m /0.0634*10-3 m )

   = 1.140

Light from a red laser (650 nm) is incident on two slits separated by 0.5 mm. Each slit is 0.25 mm wide. Quantitatively sketch the pattern you would observe on a screen that is located 2.0 m from the slits. Your sketch should range from -10 mm to 10 mm and include only the fringes you would observe.
