MCQ
For constructive interference to take place between two monochromatic light waves of wavelength $\lambda$, the path difference should be
  • A
    $(2n - 1)\frac{\lambda }{4}$
  • B
    $(2n - 1)\frac{\lambda }{2}$
  • $n\lambda $
  • D
    $(2n + 1)\frac{\lambda }{2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$n\lambda $
c
(c)For constructive interference path difference is even multiple of $\frac{\lambda }{2}$.
