Two lasers, one red (with wavelength 633.0 nm) and the other green (with wavelength 532.0 nm), are mounted behind a 0.150-mm slit. On the other side of the slit is a white screen. When the red laser is turned on, it creates a diffraction pattern on the screen. The distance y3, red from the center of the pattern to the location of the third diffraction minimum of the red laser is 4.05 cm. How far L is the screen from the slit? Express this distance L in meters to three significant figures.
