A student and his lab partner create a single slit by carefully aligning two razor blades to a separation of 0 460 mm When a helium neon laser at 594 nm illuminates the slit a diffraction pattern is observed a screen 1 35 m beyond the slit Calculate the angle dark to the first minimum in the diffraction pattern and the width of the central maximum HINT a the angle 8 dark to the first minimum in the diffraction pattern in degrees 0 001297 x b the width of the central maximum in m 3 48 x m
