In a diffraction experiment from a single slit,the angular width of the central maximum does $NOT$ depend upon:

In a diffraction pattern due to a single slit of width $a$,the first minimum is observed at an angle $30^{\circ}$ when light of wavelength $5000 \; \mathring{A}$ is incident on the slit. The first secondary maximum is observed at an angle of

$A$ parallel beam of light of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident normally on a single slit of width $d$. Diffraction bands are obtained on a screen placed at a distance $D$ from the slit. The second dark band from the central bright band will be at a distance given by

$A$ single slit diffraction experiment is performed to determine the slit width using the equation,$\frac{b d}{D} = m \lambda$,where $b$ is the slit width,$D$ is the distance between the slit and the screen,$d$ is the distance between the $m^{\text{th}}$ diffraction maximum and the central maximum,and $\lambda$ is the wavelength. $D$ and $d$ are measured with scales of least count of $1 \ cm$ and $1 \ mm$,respectively. The values of $\lambda$ and $m$ are known precisely to be $600 \ nm$ and $3$,respectively. The absolute error (in $\mu m$) in the value of $b$ estimated using the diffraction maximum that occurs for $m=3$ with $d=5 \ mm$ and $D=1 \ m$ is $.....$
