Diffraction effects are easier to notice in the case of sound waves than in the case of light waves because

In a Fraunhofer diffraction experiment, a single slit of width $0.5 ~mm$ is illuminated by a monochromatic light of wavelength $600 ~nm$. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen at a distance of $50 ~cm$ from the slit. What will be the linear separation of the first order minima (in $~mm$)?

Light of wavelength $5000 \, \mathring{A}$ is incident on a single slit such that the first minima is formed at a distance $5 \, mm$ from the centre. If the screen is placed $2 \, m$ away,then find the width of the slit in $mm$.

"The person standing behind the open door inside the room can hear the voice of the person standing on the other side of the door but they cannot see each other". Give an experiment based on the diffraction for this statement.

Red light of wavelength $625 \, nm$ is incident normally on an optical diffraction grating with $2 \times 10^{5} \, \text{lines}/m$. Including the central principal maxima, how many maxima may be observed on a screen which is far from the grating?

Sodium light of wavelengths $650\, nm$ and $655\, nm$ is used to study diffraction at a single slit of aperture $0.5\, mm$. The distance between the slit and the screen is $2.0\, m$. The separation between the positions of the first maxima of the diffraction pattern obtained in the two cases is $x \times 10^{-5}\, m$. Find the value of $x$.
