NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12

Assertion (A): In a Young's Double Slit Experiment (YDSE), the intensity of light at a point on the screen is determined by the path difference between the two waves arriving at that point. | Reason (R): The phase difference between two coherent waves is directly proportional to the path difference, leading to constructive or destructive interference.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to the context, the path difference determines the phase difference, which in turn affects interference, leading to variations in intensity at different points.
