NEET Physics Interference Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): In Young's double-slit experiment, no interference fringes are observed when two independent light sources are used. | Reason (R): Two independent light sources are incoherent and have no fixed phase relationship.
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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Both statements are true and coherent sources are necessary for observing interference fringes. Incoherent sources, having no fixed phase relationship, result in no interference pattern.
