25 – Ans: D. dsinθn = nλ. Diffraction grating has 300lines/mm. So, d = 1x10-3 / 300 = 3x10-6 m. Consider the largest angle possible: θn = 90o. sinθn = 1. Total number of transmitted maxima on 1 side, n = d / λ = (3x10-6) / (450x10-9) = 7.4074 = 7 since n is an integer. So, considering the other side in additional to the central maxima, total number of transmitted maxima = 7 + 7 + 1 =15.


26 - Ans: D. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 596 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 117 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/04/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-117.html}
