When monochromatic light is irradiated on a reflective grating, it undergoes diffraction, resulting in a specific pattern of light. According to Bragg's Law, the angles at which constructive interference occurs depend on the wavelength of the light and the spacing of the grating. The light will be distributed in various directions, creating bright and dark fringes based on the interference pattern. Understanding the principles of diffraction and interference is crucial for predicting the resulting light pattern. Engaging with educational resources can enhance comprehension of these concepts.
