Question: Describe the interference pattern that would arise if Isaac Newton had placed a strand of his hair in the ∼ 1 mm diameter beam of a helium-neon laser. If the pattern were projected onto a screen 2m from the hair, how far from the center of the pattern would the first three minima fall? (If you can, borrow someone's laser pointer and try the experiment; look carefully.)
