Understanding +4 | -1

Statement-1: In interference experiment, the fringe system will shift, if a glass plate is interposed in the path of the one of the interfering beams and the shift will be on the side of the glass plate.
Statement-2: The velocity of light in glass is smaller than in air.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, Statement-2 is the correct explanation for Statement-1

Option A is correct because Statement-1 and Statement-2 are true, and Statement-2 correctly explains Statement-1 regarding the shift in the fringe system due to the glass plate.
