Determine the angular separation between the central maximum and the first-order maxima of the diffraction pattern due to a single slit of width $0.25\, mm$ when light of wavelength $5890\,\mathring{A}$ is incident on it.

$A$ microwave of wavelength $2.0 \ cm$ falls normally on a slit of width $4.0 \ cm$. The angular spread of the central maxima of the diffraction pattern obtained on a screen $1.5 \ m$ away from the slit,will be: (in $^{\circ}$)

In the diffraction pattern, the first maximum is at $30^{\circ}$, when a monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a slit of width $a$. For the same wavelength, if the slit width is changed, so that the first maximum is at $45^{\circ}$, by how much is the slit width changed?
