Correct Answer: Electromagnetic waves do not show interference and diffraction.
Solution : The correct option is Electromegnetic waves do not show interference and diffraction.
Electromagnetic waves , like light, demonstrate both interference and diffraction. Interference arises from the interaction of two or more waves, leading to patterns of constructive and destructive interference. Diffraction, on the other hand, involves the bending or spreading of waves when they encounter an obstacle or opening. This phenomenon is also observed in electromagnetic waves, including light.
