Which outcome occurs when monochromatic light passes through slits?

💡 Explanation

Interference patterns form because superposition of waves leads to additive (constructive) or subtractive (destructive) effects. Waves from each slit interfere; therefore, an interference pattern is formed, rather than broadening or scattering of light, or image formation.
