Which effect arises when light passes through diffraction grating?

A)Constructive interference forms diffraction patterns
B)Refraction separates according to wavelengths
C)Polarization filters specific light vectors
D)Absorption attenuates specific wavelengths

💡 Explanation

Constructive interference creates bright fringes at angles satisfying the grating equation because the path difference is an integer multiple of the wavelength. Therefore, a diffraction pattern forms across the surface, rather than dispersive refraction as in prism.
