← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when multiple coherent laser beams intersect?
A)An interference fringe pattern forms✓
B)Beams scatter incoherently
C)Energy remains evenly distributed
D)Wavelengths combine into shorter beams
💡 Explanation
An oscillating interference fringe pattern forms because coherent beams maintain phase relationships when interacting, undergoing constructive interference rather than incoherent scattering. Therefore, light and dark bands result rather than simple diffusion which occurs during incoherent intersection.
