Statement I: In Young's experiment, the fringe width for dark fringes is different from that of white fringes.
Statement II: In Young's doulbe-slit experiment, when the fringes are observed with a source of white light then only black and bright fringes are observed.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In Young’s experiment fringe width for dark and white fringes are same while in Young’s double slit experiment when a white light as a source is used, the central fringe is white around which few coloured fringes are observed on either side.
