Question
The 3rd bright fringe of a double slit interference pattern is 30.0 cm above the central bright fringe. If the angle from the horizontal to this 3rd bright fringe is 12.0 degrees, what is the distance (in meters) between the double slits and the viewing screen

Answer:
Explanation:
12 degree = (π / 180) x 12 radian
= .2093 radian
position of third bright fringe = 3λ D/ d where λ is wave length of light , D is screen distance and d is slit separation
given
3λ D/ d = 30 x 10⁻²
angular separation
3λ / d = .2093
from the two equation
.2093 D= 30 x 10⁻²
D = 30 x 10⁻² / .2093
= 1.43 m
