    What will be the angle of diffracting for the first minimum due to Fraun hoffer diffraction with sources of light of wave length \[550\,\,nm\] and slit of width\[0.55\,\,mm\]

    A) \[0.001\,\,rad\]                

    B) \[0.01\,\,rad\]

    C) \[1\,\,rad\]                        

    D) \[0.1\,\,rad\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Using the formula                 \[d\sin \theta =n\,\,\lambda \] For\[n=1\]we have\[\sin \theta =\frac{\lambda }{d}\]                 \[\sin \theta =\frac{550\times {{10}^{-9}}}{0.55\times {{10}^{-3}}}={{10}^{-3}}\,\,rad\]                                                 \[=0.001\,\,rad\]
