← ScienceWhich outcome obscures microscopic resolution when light's wavelength increases?
A)Increased destructive interference blurs details✓
B)Reduced numerical aperture tightens beams
C)Chromatic aberration creates sharper edges
D)Improved lens coatings heighten transmission
💡 Explanation
Increased wavelength results in more pronounced diffraction alongside destructive interference; because smaller features diffract light more broadly therefore fewer photons resolve them, rather than forming sharper images at longer wavelengths.
