IMPORTANT

Assertion: If a glass slab is placed in front of one of the slits, then fringe width will decrease.

Reason: Glass slab will produce an additional path difference.

Assertion: Interference shows wave nature of light.

Reason: Photoelectric effect proves particle nature of light.

IMPORTANT

Assertion: If wavelength is of the order of distance between the slits, then fringe size is large.
Reason: Fringe width is given by, w=λDd.

IMPORTANT

Assertion: In Young's double slit experiment, ratio ImaxImin is infinite.

Reason: If width of any one of the slits is slightly increased, then this ratio will decrease.
