Last updated: 5 July 2026
Every RBSE Class 12 Physics board paper from 2013 to 2026 for Wave Optics, sorted and tagged so you know exactly which Young's-double-slit, diffraction and Huygens'-principle questions to revise first.
Real previous-year questions with the exact RBSE board years they appeared in. 5 more high-yield questions — including polarisation and coherent-source questions — are in the free PDF.
To produce an interference fringe pattern, draw the necessary diagram of Young's double slit experiment. Derive an expression for the fringe width of bright fringes.
🔥 Most repeated · asked 4×Define diffraction of light.
🔁 Repeated · asked 3×What is a wavefront? Explain the laws of refraction of light on the basis of Huygens' wave theory.
🔁 Repeated · asked 2×What are coherent sources?
⚙️ Core conceptWrite any two necessary conditions for interference of light. Obtain the formula for fringe width in Young's double slit experiment.
⭐ High-weightage derivationThe other 5 are in the free PDF — and all 33 previous-year questions for this chapter are in the full book.

If you have gone through the last decade of RBSE Class 12 Physics papers, you will notice Chapter 10 (Wave Optics) is tested every year without fail. It belongs to Unit VI — Optics and is drawn from a pool of 33 previous-year questions spanning 2013–2026, spread across MCQs, very short, short and long-answer sections. The topics rotate, but the question patterns stay remarkably steady.
Expect 1-mark openers defining diffraction, coherent sources, or wavefront. The 1.5 to 2-mark questions lean on Huygens' explanation of refraction. The heavy marks sit in the 2 to 4-mark questions, which almost always ask you to draw Young's double-slit experiment and derive the fringe-width expression — RBSE's most repeated question from this chapter.
So the smart way to revise this chapter is not to read it end to end, but to practise the questions RBSE actually repeats. The five questions above — and the ten in the free sample PDF — are taken straight from real board papers and tagged with the exact years they appeared, so you can see for yourself what the full RBSE Physics chapterwise PYQ book offers before you decide to buy it.
The RBSE syllabus sub-topics this chapter's PYQs are drawn from — useful for scoping your revision even if you're not buying the full book.
