Question

In interference, which of the following statements is true?
1) All the fringes are of the same width.
2) The fringe width is independent of the position of the fringe.
3) Both A and B
4) None of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

In interference, the following statement is true:

2) The fringe width is independent of the position of the fringe.

Explanation:

The fringe width in interference patterns remains constant regardless of the position of the fringe. This characteristic is a fundamental property of interference phenomena and is derived from the mathematical equations governing interference patterns. Therefore, option 2 is correct.
