    In the fringe pattern of a Youngs double slit experiment the ratio of intensities of maxima and minima is 25 : 9. Then, the ratio of the amplitudes of interfering waves is

    A)  \[4:1\]                  

    B)  \[5:3\]

    C)  \[4:3\]                 

    D) \[25:9\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     According to the question, we can write \[\frac{{{I}_{\max }}}{{{I}_{\min }}}={{\left( \frac{{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}}{{{a}_{1}}-{{a}_{2}}} \right)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{25}{9}={{\left( \frac{{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}}{{{a}_{1}}-{{a}_{2}}} \right)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{5}{3}=\frac{{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}}{{{a}_{1}}-{{a}_{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[5{{a}_{1}}-5{{a}_{2}}=3{{a}_{1}}+3{{a}_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[2{{a}_{1}}=8{{a}_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{8}{2}=\frac{4}{1}\]
