A grating has 10000 lines/cm & its total width is 5 cm. Calculate for $\lambda$ = 6000$\mathring{A}$ in the 2nd order its RP & the smallest difference in $\lambda$ which can be just resolved.

N = 10000 lines/cm, Width W = 5 cm, λ = 6000 Å, n = 2, RP = ?, dλ = ?

Total number of lines on grating are N = 10000x 5 = 50000

RP = nN

RP = 2x 50000

RP = 100000

$\frac{λ}{dλ}$ = RP

100000 = …
