MCQ
A Young's double slit experiment is performed with white light:
  • A
    The central fringe will be white.
  • B
    There will not be a completely dark fringe.
  • C
    The fringe next to the central will be red.
  • D
    The fringe next to the central will be violet.

Answer

  1. The central fringe will be white.

  2. There will not be a completely dark fringe.

  1. The fringe next to the central will be violet.

Explanation:

The superposition of all the colours at the central maxima gives the central band a white colour. As we go from the centre to corner, the fringe colour goes from violet to red. There will not be a completely dark fringe, as complete destructive interference does not take place.
