In Young's double slit experiment

A

All the bright fringes will be coloured.

B

All the bright fringes will be white.

C

The central fringe will be white

D

No stable interference pattern will be visible.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
If Young.s double slit experiment is done with white light, then central fringe will be white. Because central fringe is the place on the screen where path difference or phase difference between any two waves simultaneously emanating from the two slits is zero.
