In Young's double slit experiment, the central bright fringe can be identified

A

as it is narrower than other bright fringes

B

by using white light instead of monochromatic light.

C

as it has a greater intensity than other bright fringes

D

as it is wider than other bright fringes.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In Young.s double slit experiment, the central bright fringe can be identified by using whitelight instead of monochromatic light because if the slit is illuminated with white light, then a central white fringe is obtained surrounded with a few coloured fringes.
