Consider two diffraction gratings; one has 4000 lines per cm and the other one has 6000 lines per cm. Make a statement comparing the dispersion of the two gratings

A)

The 4000-line grating produces the greater dispersion.
B)

The 6000-line grating produces the greater dispersion.
C)

Both gratings produce the same dispersion, but the orders are sharper for the 4000-line grating.
D)

Both gratings produce the same dispersion, but the orders are sharper for the 6000-line grating.
