Why there is no interference pattern observed when two coherent sources are placed far apart?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Coherent Sources**: - Coherent sources are two or more sources that emit waves with a constant phase difference. For interference to occur, these sources must maintain this coherence. 2. **Interference Pattern Formation**: - An interference pattern is formed when two coherent waves overlap. This pattern consists of alternating bright (maxima) and dark (minima) fringes on a screen. ...
