The wavelength range of the visible spectrum is

Chapter 36, Problem 36.32

(choose chapter or problem)

The wavelength range of the visible spectrum is approximately 380750 nm. White light falls at normal incidence on a diffraction grating that has Find the angular width of the visible spectrum in (a) the first order and (b) the third order. (Note: An advantage of working in higher orders is the greater angular spread and better resolution. A disadvantage is the overlapping of different orders, as shown in Example 36.4.)
