On investigation of light from three different stars A, B and C, it was found that in the spectrum of A, the intensity of red colour is maximum, in B the intensity of blue colour is maximum and in C the intensity of yellow colour is maximum. From these observations, it can be concluded that

A

the temperature of A is maximum, B is minimum and C is intermediate.

B

the temperature of A is maximum C is minimum and B is intermediate.

C

the temperature of B is maximum A is minimum and C is intermediate.

On observing light from three different stars P , Q and R , it was found that intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of P , the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of R and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of Q . if T_(P) , T_(Q) and T_(R) are respective absolute temperature of P , Q and R . then it can be concluded from the above observation that

The intensity of light emerging from one slit is nine times than that from the other slit in Young's double sit interference set up. The ratio of maximum intensity to minimum intensity in the fringe pattern is

In a Young's double slit experiment, I_0 is the intensity at the central maximum and beta is the fringe width. The intensity at a point P distant x from the centre will be

The temperature of a furnace is 2327^(@)C and the intensity is maximum in its radiation spectrum at 12000Å. If the intensity in the spectrum of a star is maximum at 4800Å, then the surface temperature of the star is

The intensity of the light coming from one of the slits in a Young's double slit experiment is double the intensity from the other slit. Find the ratio of the maximum intensity to the minimum intensity in the interference fringe pattern observed.
