Intensity of Double-Slit Pattern: Light of Wavelength 525 Nm Passes

question 52

Short Answer

Intensity of double-slit pattern: Light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two slits separated by 0.500 mm and produces an interference pattern on a screen 7.80 m away. The intensity at the central maximum is I₀. What is the distance on the screen from the center of this central maximum to the point where the intensity due to double-slit interference has fallen to 1/2 I₀?
