  • question_answer
    In Youngs double slit experiment the intensities of dark and bright lines are 1 and 4 respectively, then the amplitudes of the source are in the ratio:

    A)  \[1:1\]                                 

    B)         \[1:2\]                 

    C)  \[3:1\]                                 

    D)         \[1:3\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Ratio of amplitudes is equal to the square root of ratio of intensities. \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{I}_{1}}}{{{I}_{2}}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}=1:2\]
