    If the ratio of amplitude of wave is 2 : 1, then the ratio of maximum and minimum intensity is     [MH CET 1999]

    A)            9 : 1                                          

    B)            1 : 9

    C)            4 : 1                                          

    D)            1 : 4

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               \[\frac{{{I}_{\max }}}{{{I}_{\min }}}={{\left( \frac{\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}+1}{\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}-1} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{2+1}{2-1} \right)}^{2}}=9/1\]
