JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 10. Wave optics
\(n\) identical waves each of intensity \(I_0\) interfere with each other. The ratio of maximum intensities if the interference is \((i)\) coherent and \((ii)\) incoherent is :
- A \(n^2\)
- B \(\frac{1}{n}\)
- C \(\frac{1}{n^2}\)
- D \(n\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(n\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
