$A$ single slit Fraunhofer diffraction pattern is formed with white light. For what wavelength of light does the third secondary maximum in the diffraction pattern coincide with the second secondary maximum in the pattern for red light of wavelength $6500 Å$ (in $Å$)?

In a Fresnel diffraction arrangement,the screen is at a distance of $2 \ m$ from a circular aperture. It is found that for light of wavelengths ${\lambda _1}$ and ${\lambda _2},$ the radius of the $4^{th}$ zone for ${\lambda _1}$ coincides with the radius of the $5^{th}$ zone for ${\lambda _2}.$ Then the ratio ${\lambda _1}:{\lambda _2}$ 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.

Fresnel diffraction is produced due to light rays falling on a small obstacle. The intensity of light at a point on a screen beyond an obstacle depends on
