AS Unit 2 diffraction
Can anybody help with this question please??
When a parallel beam of monochromatic light is incident normally on a
diffraction grating, light leaving the grating has maxima of intensity in
particular directions. Explain the parts played by diffraction and interference
in the production of these maxima

its basically asking you how does diffraction cause the maxima and minima, so why can you see the fringes...
so superposition of the monochromatic light in some areas causing maxima, interference (cancelling) of the waves in areas where there is a minima.
also monochromatic light means the light has the same wavelength.
hope it gives you a little guide
