Multiple Choice
Which of the following statements is false?
A) As the distance between two narrow slits is made smaller,the interference pattern produced by them on a screen gets wider.
B) As the width of a single slit is narrowed,the diffraction pattern on a screen gets wider.
C) As the wavelength of light hitting a single slit is reduced,the diffraction pattern on a screen gets wider.
D) When a diffraction grating is illuminated by white light,the first order maximum for green light is farther from the central maximum than first order maximum for blue light.
E) If two polarizers have their axes 90 apart,introducing a third polarizer between the two can allow light to be transmitted through all three.
