(a) 12.22 degrees
(b) 18.51 degrees
(c) 30.53 degrees


  1. If the first minimumis at 8.21 degrees andthe second minimum is
    at 16.6 degrees, what isthe wavelength of lightand the width of the
    slit? (Hint: solve simultaneously.)

  2. Determine the MachNumber, with a speed of sound of 340 m· s−^1 ,
    for the following aircraftspeeds:
    (a) 640 m· s−^1
    (b) 980 m· s−^1
    (c) 500 m· s−^1
    (d) 450 m· s−^1
    (e) 1300 km· h−^1
    (f) 1450 km· h−^1
    (g) 1760 km· h−^1

  3. If an aircraft has a Mach Number of 3.3 and the speed of sound is 340
    m· s−^1 , what is its speed?

  4. Determine the MachCone angle, with a speedof sound of 340 m· s−^1 ,
    for the following aircraftspeeds:
    (a) 640 m· s−^1

    (c) 500 m· s−^1
    (d) 450 m· s−^1
    (e) 1300 km· h−^1
    (f) 1450 km· h−^1
    (g) 1760 km· h−^1

  5. Determine the aircraft speed, with a speed of sound of 340 m· s−^1 ,
    for the following Mach Cone Angles:
    (a) 58.21 degrees
    (b) 49.07 degrees
    (c) 45.1 degrees
    (d) 39.46 degrees
    (e) 31.54 degrees
