Question

A pair of slits is located near a screen in such a way that light incident on the slits can form a double slit interference pattern on the screen.
(a) Which of the following actions performed by itself would increase the angular position of the m = 3 minimum of the pattern (more than one answer may be correct)?

use light with a longer wavelength

use light with a shorter wavelength

increase the distance from the slits to the screen

decrease the distance from the slits to the screen

use slits which are farther apart

use slits which are closer together


(b) Which of the following actions performed by itself would  decrease the distance along the screen between the pattern's center and the m = 2 maximum of the pattern (more than one answer may be correct)?

use light with a longer wavelength

use light with a shorter wavelength

increase the distance from the slits to the screen

decrease the distance from the slits to the screen

use slits which are farther apart

use slits which are closer together
