NEET 2026 Physics Interference and Diffraction MCQ Question
In interference and diffraction, the light energy is redistributed. If it reduces in one region, producing a dark fringe, it increases in another region, producing a bright fringe.
A. As there is no gain or loss of energy, these phenomena are consistent with the principle of conservation of energy.
B. Diffraction and interference are characteristics exhibited only by light waves.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A is true and B is also true
A is false, but B is true
A is true, but B is false
Both A and B are false
Correct Answer
