The interference pattern formed by two coherent sources of light is dependent on:

A

The wavelength of the light waves only

 

 

B

The amplitude of the light waves only

 

C

The frequency of the light waves only

 

D

Both the wavelength and the amplitude of the light waves

correct option: d

Explanation: The interference pattern formed by two coherent sources of light is determined by both the wavelength and the amplitude of the light waves. The spacing and intensity of the interference fringes depend on the wavelength, while the brightness or darkness of the fringes depends on the amplitude of the waves.
