Angular dispersion of central maximum \mathrm{ =} angular dispersion of \mathrm{ 1^{\text {st }}} minimum \mathrm{ (=2 \theta)} From,

\mathrm{ \sin \theta=\frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{d}}=\frac{2 \times 10^{-3}}{4 \times 10^{-3}}=\frac{1}{2}}

or  \mathrm{\theta=30^{\circ}}

\mathrm{ \therefore \quad 2 \theta=2 \times 30^{\circ}=60^{\circ} }
