Concept explainers

Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

Question

(a) blue light with a frequency of 6.445 x 10¹⁴ Hz and

(b) orange light with a frequency of 4.885 x 10¹⁴ Hz.
