Monochromatic light is incident on a sheet with a long

Chapter , Problem 51

(choose chapter or problem)

Monochromatic light is incident on a sheet with a long narrow slit (Figure 33-45). Let be the intensity at the central maximum of the diffraction pattern on a distant screen, and let I be the intensity at the second intensity maximum from the central intensity maximum. The distance from this second intensity maximum to the far edge of the slit is longer than the distance from the second intensity maximum to the near edge of the slit by approximately 2.5 wavelengths. What is the ratio of I to I0?
