A laser emits light at a wavelength of 488 nm at an average power of 5.00 mW. The laser’s produces a circular beam with a diameter of 1.00 mm. This light is then passed through a double slit projecting an interference pattern on a screen 2.25 m away. a. (10 points) If the central bright fringe is 3.50 cm wide, what is the spacing between the slits?
