Note: This question paper contains two parts A and B. Part A is compulsory which carries 25 marks. Answer all questions in Part A. Part B consists of 5 Units. Answer any one full question from each unit. Each question carries 10 marks and may have a, b, c as sub questions.

Part A

125 marks
a

Define interference.

2 marks

Answer

Interference is the phenomenon of the redistribution of light energy in a medium due to the superposition of two or more coherent light waves, resulting in regions of maximum and minimum intensity.

b

What is diffraction

3 marks

Answer

Diffraction is the phenomenon of bending of light waves around the sharp edges or corners of an obstacle or an aperture whose size is comparable to the wavelength of the light, resulting in the spreading of light into the region of geometrical shadow.

c

Explain the phenomenon of polarization of light.
