In single slit diffraction pattern

A
central fringe has negligible width than others
B
all fringes are of same width
C
central fringes do not exist
Correct answer
D
None of the above

Solution

In single slit diffraction, the central fringe has maximum intensity and has the width double than other fringes.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
