Two slits separated by a distance d = 1cm allow light of wavelength 500nm to pass through and interfere. A screen is situated 10m from the slits, where a pattern of bright and dark fringes are observed. As measured from the center 0th order fringe, what is the distance to the first dark fringe in micrometers (µm)?

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
