NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 10. Wave optics

Two coherent sources of light interfere and produce fringe pattern on a screen. For central maximum, the phase difference between the two waves will be,

  1. A \(\frac {\pi}{2}\)
  2. B \(0\)
  3. C \(\pi\)
  4. D \(\frac {3\pi}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For central maximum, path difference is zero hence phase difference for coherent sources of light will be zero. \(\because 0=\frac{2 \pi}{\lambda} \Delta x\)
