Chapter 27, Problem 72GP

(choose chapter or problem)

When yellow sodium light, \(\lambda=589 \mathrm{~nm}\), falls on a diffraction grating, its first-order peak on a screen \(60.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) away falls \(3.32 \mathrm{~cm}\) from the central peak. Another source produces a line \(3.71 \mathrm{~cm}\) from the central peak. What is the wavelength of the new source? How many lines/ \(\mathrm{cm}\) are on the grating?
