To deminstrate the phenimenon of interference, we require two sources which emit radiation

A

nearly the same frequency

B

the same frequency

C

different wavelength

D

the same frequency and having a definite phase relationship

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

To demonstrate the phenomenon of interference we reqruired coherent sources. i.e., sources with same frequency and a fixed phase relationship.
