Answer:

Explanation:

slit width d = .695 x 10⁻³ m

screen distance D = 2.16 m

distance of first minima x = 1.35 x 10⁻³ m

Let wave length of light used be λ

distance of first minima x = λ D / d

putting the values

1.35 x 10⁻³  = λ x 2.16  /  .695 x 10⁻³

λ = .4343 x 10⁻⁶ m

= 434.3 x 10⁻⁹ m

= 434.3 nm .
