← ScienceWhich phenomenon causes interference fringes in radio astronomy?
A)Wave superposition causes signal modulation✓
B)Thermal expansion creates refractive distortion
C)Atmospheric turbulence creates signal loss
D)Gravitational lensing affects signal path
💡 Explanation
Wave superposition creates interference fringes because radio waves, arriving from different paths, interfere constructively and destructively. The telescope array utilizes this interference, therefore, this outcome occurs in radio astronomy, rather than thermal expansion distortions or atmospheric losses.
