First slide

Diffraction

Question

Angular width of central maximum of a diffraction pattern of a single slit does not depend upon

Easy

A

distance between slit and source
B

wavelength of light used
C

width of the slit
D

frequency of light used

Solution

Angular width $β = (\frac{λ}{d}) = (\frac{c}{ν d})$
where, d= width of the slit, c = velocity of light and v= frequency. Hence angular width does not depend upon distance between slit and source.
