Homework Statement
If "d" is the grating constant, determine the ruling (number of lines/grooves per meter) "D"
Homework Equations
I have spent hours researching sites that are far too complicated for my understanding of physics. As a result the only relevant equation I could remotely relate to this problem is as follows:
N= 1/d
The Attempt at a Solution
N= 1/1.6555x10^-6m
= a really big number! such as 604,230 grooves/m or lines/mIt just doesn't make sense and I'm getting upset!
Please, pretty please with a cherry on top, is anyone able to help me? Physics is by far my worst subject but I'm trying!
