In Young's double slits experiment, if the ratio of the width of the two slits is 25 : 1, what is the ratio of intensity at the maxima and minima in the interference pattern?

  1. A \(5:1 \)
  2. B \(4:9\)
  3. C \(25:1\)
  4. D \(9:4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(9:4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{w_1}{w_2} = \frac{25}{1}\) \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{\frac{I_1}{I_2}} = \sqrt{25} = 5\) \(\frac{I_{max}}{I_{min}} = \left(\frac{A_1 + A_2}{A_1 - A_2}\right)^2 = \left(\frac{5A_2 + A_2}{5A_2 - A_2}\right)^2\)…
