What is a sustained or stable interference pattern? What are the conditions for obtaining such an interference pattern?
What is a sustained or stable interference pattern ? What are the conditions for obtaining such an interference pattern?
Marking-scheme solution
When position of maxima and minima is not changing with time, interference pattern is called sustained or stable interference.
Light sources must be coherent
