Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) there is some intensity of light in the region of destructive interference.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

If \( A_1 \neq A_2 \), then for destructive interference, resultant amplitude \( A_{min} = |A_1 - A_2| \neq 0 \). Thus, there is some intensity of light in the region of destructive interference.
