In a single slit diffraction experiment, the width of the slit is increased. How will the
- size and
- intensity
of central bright band be affected? Justify your answer.

उत्तर
The width of the central bright band = `2 D xx lambda/d`
Where d = width of the slit
- As the width of the slit is doubled, the size of the central diffraction band will be half.
- Intensity of the central bright band is proportional to d2.
So, the intensity will quadruple.

Ray optics is based on the assumption that light travels in a straight line. Diffraction effects (observed when light propagates through small apertures/slits or around small obstacles) disprove this assumption. Yet the ray optics assumption is so commonly used in understanding location and several other properties of images in optical instruments. What is the justification?
