← ScienceWhich consequence results when perpendicularly polarized light beams interfere?
A)No interference fringe visibility✓
B)Increased beam intensity overall
C)Wavelength shift towards blue
D)Higher photon energy levels
💡 Explanation
Two orthogonal polarized beams cannot produce observable interference, because the superposition principle requires parallel electric field components for the **interference** mechanism; therefore, fringe visibility vanishes completely, rather than exhibiting intensity changes or related optical effects.
