The angular width of the central maxima in Fraunhofer diffraction for $\lambda = 6000 \; \mathring{A}$ is $\theta_{0}$. When the same slit is illuminated by another monochromatic light,the angular width decreases by $30 \%$. The wavelength of this light is ....... $\mathring{A}$.

The cause of Fraunhofer lines is

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer:
$A$. Fresnel's diffraction pattern occurs when the source of light or the screen on which the diffraction pattern is seen, or when both are at a finite distance from the aperture.
$B$. Diffracted light can be used to estimate the helical structure of nucleic acids.

In a Fraunhofer diffraction,light of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a slit of width $d$. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen placed at a distance $D$. If the linear width of the central maximum is equal to two times the width of the slit,then the value of $D$ is:

What will be the angle of diffraction for the first minimum due to Fraunhofer diffraction with a source of light of wavelength $550 \,nm$ and a slit of width $0.55 \,mm$ (in $,rad$)?

The condition for observing Fraunhofer diffraction from a single slit is that the wave front incident on the slit should be ............
