Constructive interference occurs when \(d \space sin \space \theta = m \lambda\) form = 0, ± 1, ±2,..., where d is the distance between the slits, θ is the angle relative to the incident direction, and m is the order of the interference.

(b) The pattern obtained for white light incident on a grating. The large distance between the red and violet ends of the rainbow produced from the white light indicates the potential this diffraction grating has as a spectroscopic tool.
