Monochromatic light falling on two slits 0.045 mm apart produces the third-order fringe at a 7.2° angle. What is the wavelength of the light used?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what did you try?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[d \sin \theta = m \lambda\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea how to do it! :/ my teacher gave us no guidance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m is the order of the max

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you must have been given the equation...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o_o still confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can i get a formula please!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d is the distance between the slits, lambda is the wavelength

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need a formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

already gave it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind.
