This worksheet shows you the number of position of maxima of single-slit diffraction in dependence of wavelength of the light and the gap width.

Use the sliders to change the wavelength of the light and the width of the slit! Fill in:[br]The higher the wavelength of light, the ____________ is the number of sidelobes.[br]The wider the gap, the ___________ is the number of sidelobes.
