Question Image

y = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{{5\lambda }}{2}\,;\Delta x = d\sin \theta = d\frac{y}{D}\

\Delta x = \frac{{5\lambda }}{2}\frac{{5\lambda }}{{50\lambda }} = \frac{\lambda }{4};\phi = \frac{{2\pi }}{\lambda } \times \frac{\lambda }{4} = \frac{\pi }{2}\

\large I = {I_0}{\cos ^2}\,\frac{\phi }{2} = {I_0}{\cos ^2}\left( {\frac{\pi }{4}} \right) = \frac{{{I_o}}}{2}\
