Assuming 1st order diffraction with interparticle distance in a crystal og 0.4nm, calculate the wavelength of X-rays which  produce a diffraction angle 20 equal to 0.286 radian for a crystal.

Dear student,
Bragg's law 2dsinθ = nλhere n= 1, θ=0.2862=0.143rad =8.10λ=2dsinθn=2dsinθλ =2×0.4×10-9sin(8.1)λ =2×0.4×10-9×0.4λ =0.08×10-9=8×10-11m
