NEET Physics Interference Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Assertion (A): In Young’s double slit experiment all fringes are of equal width. Reason (R): The fringe width depends upon wavelength of light (λ) used, distance of screen from plane of slits (D) and slits separation (d).

A

Both assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

B

Both assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

C

Assertion (A) is true and Reason (R) is false.

D

Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is also false.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The fringe width in Young's experiment is constant for a given setup, and the reason correctly explains the dependence of fringe width on the given parameters.
