A screen is placed 50cm from a single slit, which is illuminated with 6000 Ao light. If distance between the first and third minima in the diffraction pattern is 3mm, the width of the slit is

a
0.1mm
b
0.2mm
c
0.3mm
d
0.4mm

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Position of nth minima yn=nλDd⇒y3−y1=λDd(3−1)=2λDd⇒3×10−3=2×6000×10−10×0.5d⇒d=0.2×10−3m=0.2mm
