In a double slit experiment using a monochromatic light source of wavelength 400\text{ nm}, the distance between the bright fringes is found to be 8.0\text{ mm}. If the screen is 5.0\text{ m} from the double slit, what is the slit separation?
- (A)
1.0 \times 10^{-5}\text{ m} - (B)
2.5 \times 10^{-4}\text{ m} - (C)
1.0 \times 10^{-3}\text{ m} - (D)
2.5 \times 10^{-2}\text{ m}
