S(1) and S(2) are two coherent sources. ...

`S_(1) and S_(2)` are two coherent sources. The intensity of both sources are same. If the intensity at the point of maxima is `4Wm^(-2)`, the intensity of each source is

A

`1Wm^(-2)`

B

`2Wm^(-2)`

C

`3Wm^(-2)`

D

`4Wm^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The intensity at a point of maxima,
`I_("max")=4I_(0)=4Wm^(-2)`
`therefore I_(0)=1Wm^(-2)`
