Which of the following statements are correct with reference to single slit diffraction pattern?
- A Both (I) and (III)
- B Both (I) and (IV)
- C Both (II) and (IV)
- D Both (II) and (III)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Both (I) and (III)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In single slit diffraction pattern, the width of central maxima is larger than the width of maxima on either sides and the intensity decreases rapidly on either side, but the light energy remains conserved.
Hence, statements I and II are correct.
Hence, statements I and II are correct.
