Describe the differences and similarities between double slit interference and the interference that occurs when using a diffraction grating
DIFFERENCES:
(1) In case of diffraction grating, interference maximum is sharper than compared to that of double slit interference.
(2) Also interference maximum has more intensity in case of grating.
SIMILARITIES:
(1) Interference pattern formed in both grating as well as double slit are similar in nature.
(2) In both cases when light hits a screen, depending on what phase each beam is in they will interfere either constructively, providing maxima, or destructively, providing minima.
