Wave optics Interference

1. What are coherent sources of light? Can two bulbs, similar in all respect act as coherent
source of light? Explain.
2. Is there violation of law of conservation of energy in the interference of light. Expalin.

the two slits in the youngs double slit experiment are illuminated by two different sodium
lamp emitting light of same wavelength. Explain.
4. A source gives out white light in the Youngs double slit experiment and one slit is
covered with blue filter and other with red filter, can you observed interference pattern?

double slit experiment?

water?

distance between slit and screen is double then what will be the effect on fringe width?

sources
