In a Fraunhoffer diffraction, light of wavelength '' is incident on slit of width 'd'. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen placed at a distance 'D'. The linear width of cenral maximum is equal to two times the width of the slit, then 'D' has value

Answer: (A)

Solution

The angular half-width of the central maximum is given by , i.e. . The linear width of the central maximum on a screen at distance is . Given that this
