A beam of white light, containing wavelengths from 400 nm (violet) to 750 nm (red), is directed at a pair of narrow slits 0.002 mm apart. Sketch and label the patterns (i.e., locations and colors) of light which will be seen on a large wall behind the slits. Show any calculations that you use to justify your sketch.
