When you look at a single slit diffraction pattern produced on a screen by light of a single wavelength, you see a bright central maximum and a number of maxima on either side, their intensity decreasing with distance from the central maximum. If the wavelength of the light is increased,
◦
the pattern shrinks in size. (central maximum less wide; other maxima in closer to it)
◦
the pattern increases in size. (central maximum wider; other maxima farther from it)
◦
it does not affect the size of the pattern.
◦
the width of the central maximum increases, but the other maxima do not change in position or width.
◦
the width of the central maximum decreases, but the other maxima do not change in position or width.
