The second minimum in the diffraction pattern of a 0.11-mm-wide slit occurs at 0.72°. what is the wavelength of the light?

691.13 nm

Explanation:

d = width of the slit = 0.11 x 10⁻³ m

θ = angle of diffraction pattern = 0.72° degree

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

m = order = 2                              (since second minimum)

for the second minimum diffraction pattern we use the equation

d Sinθ = m λ

Inserting the values

(0.11 x 10⁻³) Sin0.72 = (2) λ

λ = 691.13 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 691.13 nm

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.
