APFIVE Single-Slit Diffraction First Minimum
In a single-slit diffraction experiment, the intensity at a point in the pattern depends on the phase differences of wavelets from different parts of the slit. At the first minimum, what is true about these wavelets?
A
They are all in phase with each other
B
They destructively interfere completely
C
They constructively interfere completely
D
Half interfere constructively, half destructively
