Questions on Diffraction Grating

1. A diffraction grating has 1000 lines/1 cm. When light passes through the grating, an
interference pattern is produced on a screen 4.00 m away. The first-order bright fringe is 19.2
cm away from the central antinode. What is the wavelength and color of the light?

2. How many lines/cm are there in a diffraction grating if the 3rd dark fringe is located 5.00 cm
from the central antinode when the screen is located 60 cm from the grating? Assume λ = 500
nm.
3. A diffraction grating has 1000 lines/cm. When red light ( λ = 750 nm) is incident on the grating,
what will be the separation between bright antinodes on a screen 3.0 m away?
