  • A
    $169:25$
  • B
    $81:16$
  • C
    $25:1$
  • D
    $9:4$

In a Young's double slit experiment,the intensity at a point where the path difference is $\frac{\lambda}{6}$ ($\lambda$ being the wavelength of light used) is $I$. If $I_0$ denotes the maximum intensity,then $\frac{I}{I_0} = $ . . . . . .

Two waves have their amplitudes in the ratio $1 : 9$. The maximum and minimum intensities when they interfere are in the ratio

Two beams of monochromatic light with intensities $64 \ mW$ and $4 \ mW$ interfere constructively to produce an intensity of $100 \ mW$. If one of the beams is shifted by a phase angle $\phi$,the intensity is reduced to $84 \ mW$. The magnitude of $\phi$ is

The intensity ratio of the maxima and minima in an interference pattern produced by two coherent sources of light is $9: 1$. The intensities of the light sources used are in the ratio (in $: 1$)

The figure shows a two-slit arrangement with a source that emits unpolarised light. $P$ is a polariser with an axis whose direction is not given. If $I_0$ is the intensity of the principal maxima when no polariser is present, calculate in the present case, the intensity of the principal maxima as well as of the first minima.
