Two light beams of intensities in the ratio 25:9 are allowed to interfere. The ratio of the intensities of maxima and minima will be

  1. A \(4:1\)
  2. B \(5:3\)
  3. C \(16:1\)
  4. D \(625:81\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(16:1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{I_{max}}{I_{min}} = \left(\frac{\sqrt{I_1} + \sqrt{I_2}}{\sqrt{I_1} - \sqrt{I_2}}\right)^2\) \(\frac{I_{max}}{I_{min}} = \left(\frac{\sqrt{25} + \sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{25} - \sqrt{9}}\right)^2\) \(\frac{I_{max}}{I_{min}} = \left(\frac{5 + 3}{5 - 3}\right)^2\)…
