Directions: Questions No. 92 are based on the following paragraph. Wave property of electrons implies that they will show diffraction effects. Davisson and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electrons from crystals. The law governing the diffraction from a crystal is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal interfere constructively (see figure).
In an experiment, electrons are made to pass through a narrow slit of width 'd' comparable to their de Broglie wavelength. They are detected on a screen at a distance 'D' from the slit (see figure). Which of the following graphs can be expected to represent the number of electrons 'N' detected as a function of the detector position 'y' (y = 0 corresponds to the middle of the slit)?
