For the following questions, assume the wavelengths of visible light range from 380 nm to 760 nm in a vacuum. (a) What is the smallest separation (in nm) between two slits that will produce a ninth-order maximum for any visible light

Explanation:

This is an interference exercise, which the case of constructive interference is described by the expression

          d sin θ  = m λ

in this case they indicate that we are in the ninth order (m = 9).

To be able to observe the pattern, the dispersion angle must be less than 90º

we substitute

           sin 90 = 1

           d = m  lang

let's calculate

           d = 9 λ

           d = 9 380 10⁻⁰

            d = 3.42 10⁻⁶  

           d2 = 9 760 10⁻⁹

           d2 = 6.84 10₋⁶

i will answer your question if you answer mine
