Single-Slit Diffraction: The figure shows the resulting pattern when a single slit is illuminated by monochromatic light. The slit is 0.3 × 10-3 m wide and is illuminated by light of wavelength 506 nm. A diffraction pattern is seen on a screen 2.8 m from the slit. What is the linear distance on the screen between the first two diffraction minima on either side of the central diffraction maximum?
