    If the ratio of intensities of two waves is 1 : 25, then the ratio of their amplitudes will be                [CPMT 1984]

    A)            1 : 25                                        

    B)            5 : 1                                          

    C)            26 : 24                                     

    D)            1 : 5

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               \[\frac{{{I}_{1}}}{{{I}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{25};\ \ \therefore \frac{a_{1}^{2}}{a_{2}^{2}}=\frac{1}{25}\Rightarrow \frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{5}\]
