Assertion: We cannot observe diffraction pattern from a wide slit iluminated by monochromatic light.

Reason: In diffraction pattern, all the bright bands are not of the same intensity.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

Option B is correct. While diffraction does occur, it's less noticeable with wide slits, and the intensity variation is a key characteristic of diffraction patterns.
