Statement-1: In Young's double slit experiment the two slits are at distance d apart. Interference pattern is observed on a screen at distance D from the slits. At a poit on the screen when it is directly opposite to one of the slits, a dard fringe is observed then the wavelength of wave is proportional of square of distance of two slits. Statement-2: In Young's double slit experiment, for identical slits, the intensity of a dark fringe is zero.
A
Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true: Statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement-1
B
Statement-1 is true, statement-2 true, statement-2 is not a correct explanation for statement-1
C
Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.
D
Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true.
