    In Young's double slit experiment, the intensity on the screen at a point whose distance from the central maxima is 2.25 times of fringe width is found to be (Given that \[{{I}_{0}}\] is the intensity of single beam)

    A)  \[\frac{{{l}_{0}}}{2}\]                    

    B)  \[{{l}_{0}}\]

    C)  \[2{{l}_{0}}\]                    

    D)  \[4{{l}_{0}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Idea Here, students must remember that the resultant intensity in YDSE depends on the phase difference between the two waves Fringe width is\[\beta =\frac{\lambda D}{d}\] Given distance from central maxima\[=2.25\times \frac{\lambda D}{d}\] Also, we know that path difference\[\Delta x\]between two interfering waves at a distance y from the centre is given by \[\Delta x=\frac{yd}{D},\left[ \text{given y = 2}\text{.25}\frac{\lambda D}{d} \right]\] Hence, \[\Delta x=\frac{2.25\times D\lambda }{d}\times \frac{d}{D}\] \[=2.25\lambda \] Hence phase difference is\[\phi =\frac{2\pi }{\lambda }\times \Delta x\] \[=\frac{2\pi }{\lambda }\times 2.25\lambda \] \[=4.5\lambda \] Now, \[l={{l}_{\max }}{{\cos }^{2}}\phi /2\] \[={{l}_{\max }}\times {{\cos }^{2}}\left( \frac{4.5\pi }{2} \right)\] \[={{l}_{\max }}{{\cos }^{2}}\frac{\pi }{4}\] \[\Rightarrow l=\frac{{{l}_{\max }}}{4}\] Now, \[{{l}_{\max }}=4{{l}_{0}}\] So, \[l=\frac{4{{l}_{0}}}{4}={{l}_{0}}\] TEST Edge In YDSE, different types of questions could be asked. The questions based on dark and bright fringes could be asked.
