Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 8

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \text { } \beta=- \\ & \Rightarrow \beta \propto \frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{d}} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{\beta_1}{\beta_2}=\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} \times \frac{\mathrm{d}_2}{\mathrm{~d}_1}=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{8} \Rightarrow \beta_2=8 \beta_1…
