SINGLE SLIT DIFFRACTION - Q8

8) What is the difference between a single slit and double slit fringe systems?
Ans: Single slit pattern has a central maximum; and minima on either side at angles satisfying the condition bsinθ = mλ (m ≠ 0). On the other hand, the double slit diffraction pattern is a mix of interference and diffraction patterns.
