The ratio of intensities of two waves is...

The ratio of intensities of two waves is 9:16. If these two waves interfere, then determine the ration of the maximum and minimum possible intensities.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`I_1/I_2 = 19/16, I_(max)/I_(min) = (sqrt(I_1//I_2+1)/(sqrt(I_1//I_2-1))^2`
