You are directing a laser at a diffraction grating with 300 line per mm to project diffracted images onto a wall to measure distances for each order and calculate their associated angles and wavelenths. If the grating used had actually contained fewer lines per meter, what differences would you expect? Explain.
On a certain crystal, a first-order X-ray diffraction maximum is observed at an angle of 33.30 relative to its
surface, using an x-ray source of unknown wavelength. Additionally, when illuminated with a different x-ray, this
time of known.wavelength 0.205 nm, a second-order maximum is detected at 22.20. Determine the spacing
between the reflecting planes..
