Problem 7 (20 points): Each graph below shows the relative intensity versus 0 for a double slit experiment. The horizontal scale is the same for all graphs. The only possible differences among the cases are the values of the slit width (a) and distance between the centers of the slits (d). Case For each of the three cases, calculate the ratio- a) 0.5 b) Rank the cases according to distance between the centers Case 2 of the slits (d), from...
