Question

A Young’s double slit experiment uses a monochromatic source. The shape of the interference fringes formed on a screen is : (A) hyperbola (B) circle (C) straight line (D) parabola

Monochromatic means light with single wavelength Hence shape of interference fringes formed on the screen is straight line. If instead of double slit experiment double hole experiment was given shape would have been hyperbolla.
