Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Statement \(- 1\) is true Statement \(-2\) is true and the Statement \(-2\) is not correct explanation of the Statement \(- 1\).

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Fringe width \(\mathrm{B}=\frac{\mathrm{D}}{\mathrm{d}} \lambda\) And number of fringes observed in the field of view is obtaincd by \(\frac{d}{\lambda}\)
