  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false and R is also false.
Assertion (A): In Young's double slit experiment, the fringes become indistinct ifone of the slits is covered with cellophane paper.
Reason (R): The cellophane paper decrease the wavelength of light.

Answer

  1. A is true but R is false.
Explanation:

When one of slits is covered with cellophane paper, the intensity of light emerging from the slit is decreased (because this medium is translucent). Now the two interfering beam have different intensities or amplitudes. Hence, intensity at minima will not be zero and fringes will become indistinct.
