Answer» From `d sin theta = k lambda` we get `delta theta = (k delta lambda)/(d cos theta)` On the other hand `x = fsin theta` so `delta x = f cos theta delta theta = (kf)/(d) delta lambda` For `f = 0.80m, delta lambda = 0.30nm` and `d = (1)/(250)mm` we get `delta x= {(6,mu,m,if,k,=,1),(12,mu,m,if,k,=,2):}` (b) Here `N = 25 xx 250 = 6250` and `(lambda)/(delta lambda) = (310.169)/(0.03) = 10339.. gtN` and so resolve we need `k = 2` For `k = 1` givens an `R.P.` of only `6250`.
