Respuesta :
The tangent of θ would be equal to ⇒ 0.5.
Calculating the inverse (tan–1) of the value for the tangent of θ would give us a diffraction angle, θ, of ⇒ 27 degree
Answer : [tex]\theta=26.56\ ^0[/tex]
Explanation :
It is given that,
A laser diffraction pattern results in y = 6.0 cm
Distance from gap to the screen, D = 12 cm
We know that the relation between [tex]\theta[/tex], y and D is
[tex]tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{D}[/tex]
[tex]tan\theta=\dfrac{6\ cm}{12\ cm}[/tex]
[tex]\theta=tan^{-1}\ 0.5[/tex]
So, [tex]\theta=26.56\ ^0[/tex]
Hence, this is required solution.
