Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

A ray of light travels through air until it strikes the interface between the air and another medium. The incident ray makes an angle of ?1 = 34.0° with the normal, as shown in the figure below. Upon passage into the second medium, the ray is refracted, emerging from the interface at an angle ?2 with respect to the normal. A light ray in air is moving down and to the right and is incident on a second medium. It makes an angle ?1 with the vertical. Inside the vertical, it continues to move down and to the right but at a steeper slope than the incident ray. It makes an angle ?2 with the vertical.
