Detailed Solution

Position of minima in diffraction patter is given by;  dsinθ=nλ
For first minima of  λ1, we have
dsinθ1=(1)λ1  or  sinθ1=λ1d             …(i)
The first maxima approximately lies between first and second minima. For wavelength λ2  its positive will be, dsinθ2=32λ2  sinθ2=3λ22d             …….(ii)
The two will coincider if, θ1=θ2  are  sinθ1=sinθ2  λ1d=3λ22d  orλ2=32λ1=32×660nm=440nm.
