$A$ slit of width $a$ is illuminated by white light. For red light $(\lambda = 6500 \; \mathring{A})$,the first minima is obtained at $\theta = 30^\circ$. Then the value of $a$ will be

  • A
    $3250 \; \mathring{A}$
  • B
    $6.5 \times 10^{-4} \; mm$
  • C
    $1.3 \; \mu m$
  • D
    $2.6 \times 10^{-4} \; cm$
