This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Answer – (c)
Explanation- For the interference pattern to be formed on the screen, the sources should be coherent and emits lights of same frequency and wavelength. In a Young's double-slit experiment, when one of the holes is covered by a red filter and another by a blue filter. In this case due to filteration only red and blue lights are present. In YDSE monochromatic light is used for the formation of fringes on the screen. Hence, in this case there shall be no interference fringes.

Answer- a
Explanation- due to refraction from the glass medium there is a phase change of
= =

According to snells law n= sin /sinr
Cosr =
= ( )
Phase difference = = = ( )
So net difference = = ( )-1/2+

Answer- ( a)
Explanation- given width of slit is 10410-10m= 10-6
Wavelength of sunlight varies from 4000A0 to 8000A0
As the width of slit is comparable to that of wavelength, hence diffraction occurs with maxima at centre. So, at the centre all colours appear i.e., mixing of colours form white patch at the centre.

Answer- (c)
Explanation-Consider the diagram the light beam incident from air to the glass slab at Brewster's angle (ip ). The incident ray is unpolarised and is represented by dot (.).
The reflected light is plane polarised represented by arrows.
As the emergent ray is unpolarised, hence intensity cannot be zero when passes through polaroid.

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- T2P= T2O+OP= D+x
T1P= T1O-OP= D-x
S1P =
S2P=
The minima will occur when S2P- S1P= (2n-1)
- =
[D2+4D2]1/2-[D2+0]1/2=
[5D2]1/2- [D2]1/2=
D-D=
we get D= 0.404

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- When angle of incidence is equal to Brewster's angle, the transmitted light is unpolarised and reflected light is plane polarised.

Consider the diagram in which unpolarised light is represented by dot and plane polarised light is represented By arrows.
Polarisation by reflection occurs when the angle of incidence Is the Brewster's angle
So tanib = where 2< 1
When the light rays travels in such a medium, the critical angle is
Sinic=
Where 2< 1
As tanib > sinic for large angles ibc
Thus the polarisation by reflection occurs definitely.

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- As per the given question, monochromatic light emerging from polaroid (I) is plane polarised. When polaroid (II) is placed infront of this polaroid (I), and rotated till no light passes through polaroid (II), then (I) and (II) are set in crossed positions, i.e., pass axes of I and II are at 90°.

Consider the above diagram where a third polaroid (III) is placed between polaroid (I) and polaroid II.

When a third polaroid (III) is placed in between (I) and (II), no light will emerge from (II), if pass axis of (III) is parallel to pass axis of (I) or (II). In

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- As we know that the frequencies of sound waves lie between 20 Hz to 20 kHz so that their wavelength ranges between 15 m to 15 mm. The diffraction occur if the wavelength of waves is nearly equal to slit width.
As the wavelength of light waves is 7000 *10-10 m to 4000 10-10m. The slit width is very near to the wavelength of sound waves as compared to light waves. Thus, the diffraction of sound waves is more evident in daily life than that of light waves.
