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 the Fraunhofer diffraction experiment, $L$ is the distance between the screen and the obstacle, $b$ is the size of the obstacle, and $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the incident light. The general condition for the applicability of Fraunhofer diffraction is:

In a Fraunhofer diffraction experiment at a single slit using light of wavelength $400 \ nm$,the first minimum is formed at an angle of $30^{\circ}$. The direction $\theta'$ of the first secondary maximum is given by

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:
