Question

differentiate between interference and diffraction

Answer 1

Hello Friend,

-------------Here is your answer --------------
☆Difference between interference and diffraction:----

☆ Interference ☆

1.)It is due to the interaction of light coming from two different wave fronts originating from the same source.

2.) It's fringes are of same width.

3.) All bright fringes are of the same intensity.

4.) All points of minimum intensity are perfect dark.

5.) The spacing between fringes is uniform.

☆ Diffraction ☆

1.)It is due to interaction of light coming from different parts of the same wave front.

2.) It's fringes are not of same width.

3.) All the bright fringes are not of same intensity.

4.) All points of minimum intensity are not perfectly dark.

5.) The spacing between fringes is not uniform.

Hope it will help you friend!
Thanks!
