In an experiment, electrons are made to pass through a narrow slit of width '$d$' comparable to their de Broglie wavelength. They are detected on a screen at a distance '$D$' from the slit (see figure). Which of the following graphs can be expected to represent the number of electrons '$N$' detected as a function of the detector position '$y$' ($y = 0$ corresponds to the middle of the slit)?
