Light with a wavelength of about 510 nm is made to pass through a diffraction grating. The angle formed between the path of the incident light and the diffracted light is 12.0° and forms a first-order bright band.The number of lines per mm in the diffraction grating, rounded to the nearest whole number, is lines per mm.
