Consider sunlight incident on a slit of width 10^(4) Å. The image seen through the slit shall

Answer»

be a fine sharp slit white in COLOUR at the CENTRE
a bright slit white at the centre diffusing to zero INTENSITIES at the edges.
a bright slit white at the centre diffusing to regions of different colours
only be diffused slit white in colour.

Solution :Given, width of the slit , `a = 10^4 Å`. The wavelength of sunlight (visible light) varies from `lambda = 4000 Å` to `7500 Å`. As, `a > > lambda`, DIFFRACTION cannot TAKE place.
So, the image seen throught the slit shall be a fine sharp slit, white in colour at the centre.
