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

Answer

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