To solve the problem of finding the ratio of maxima and minima in the interference pattern created by two slits in Young's Double Slit Experiment (YDSE) with a width ratio of 4:1, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Widths of the Slits**: Let the widths of the two slits be \( W_1 \) and \( W_2 \). Given the ratio \( W_1 : W_2 = 4 : 1 \), we can express this as: \[ W_1 = 4k \quad \text{and} \quad W_2 = k ...
