  • A
    $A$ line at $5890 \ \mathring{A}$
  • B
    $A$ line at $5896 \ \mathring{A}$
  • C
    Sodium doublet lines

$A$ monochromatic light source of wavelength $\lambda$ is placed at $S$. Three slits $S_1, S_2$ and $S_3$ are equidistant from the source $S$ and the point $P$ on the screen. $S_1P - S_2P = \lambda / 6$ and $S_1P - S_3P = 2\lambda / 3$. If $I$ is the intensity at $P$ when only one slit is open,the intensity at $P$ when all the three slits are open is

$A$ circular disc of which $2/3$ part is coated with yellow and $1/3$ part is with blue. It is rotated about its central axis with high velocity,then it will be seen as

In interference and diffraction, the light energy is redistributed. If it reduces in one region, producing a dark fringe, it increases in another region, producing a bright fringe. Statement $A$: As there is no gain or loss of energy, these phenomena are consistent with the principle of conservation of energy. Statement $B$: Diffraction and interference are characteristics exhibited only by light waves. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Assertion: The colour of the green flower seen through red glass appears to be dark.
Reason: Red glass transmits only red light.
