    Two coherent monochromatic beams of intensities \[I\]and \[4I\] respectively are superposed. The maximum and minimum intensities in the resulting pattern are

    A) \[5l\]and\[3l\]          

    B) \[9l\] and\[3l\]

    C) \[4l\] and\[l\]         

    D) \[9l\]and\[l\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     We know that The maximum intensities \[{{I}_{\max }}={{(\sqrt{{{I}_{1}}}+\sqrt{{{I}_{2}}})}^{2}}\] ?(i) The minimum intensities \[{{I}_{\min }}={{(\sqrt{{{I}_{1}}}-\sqrt{{{I}_{2}}})}^{2}}\] ?(ii) So, the ratio of the maximum and minimum of intensities is \[\frac{{{I}_{\max }}}{{{I}_{\min }}}=\frac{{{(\sqrt{{{I}_{1}}}+\sqrt{{{I}_{2}}})}^{2}}}{{{(\sqrt{{{I}_{1}}}-\sqrt{{{I}_{2}}})}^{2}}}\] \[\frac{{{I}_{\max }}}{{{I}_{\min }}}=\frac{{{(\sqrt{4I}+\sqrt{I})}^{2}}}{{{(\sqrt{4I}-\sqrt{I})}^{2}}}\] \[={{\left( \frac{3\sqrt{I}}{\sqrt{I}} \right)}^{2}}\] \[=\frac{9}{1}=9:1\]
