Choose the correct option from the following.

Two monochromatic light beams have intensities in the ratio $1 : 9$. An interference pattern is obtained by these beams. The ratio of the intensities of maximum to minimum is (in $: 1$)

When a light wave undergoes reflection at the interface from air to glass,the change in phase of the reflected wave is equal to

Two beams of light having intensities $I$ and $4I$ interfere to produce a fringe pattern on a screen. The phase difference between the two beams are $\pi/2$ and $\pi/3$ at points $A$ and $B$ respectively. The difference between the resultant intensities at the two points is $xI$. The value of $x$ will be.
