Concept explainers

Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

Question

A wave hits one side of a screen where one slit is carved. If we observe the behavior on the other
side of the screen, what do we notice?
O That the screen does not affect the wave
That the wave does not pass
That a diffraction pattern appears
That the slit acts as a wave source
