Options:
A) $ 5000{AA} $
B) $ 6000{AA} $
C) $ 7000{AA} $
D) $ 8000{AA} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
By using $ x _{n}=\frac{n\lambda D}{d} $
$ \Rightarrow (5\times {{10}^{-3}})=\frac{10\times \lambda \times 1}{(1\times {{10}^{-3}})}\Rightarrow \lambda =5\times {{10}^{-7}}m $
$ =5000{AA} $
