Two coherent sources of different intensities send waves which interfere. The ratio of maximum intensity to the minimum intensity is 25. The intensities of the sources are in the ratio

A

`25:1`

B

`5:1`

C

`9:4`

D

`625:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(I_(max))/(I_(min)) = ((sqrt(I_(1))+sqrt(I_(2)))^(2))/((sqrt(I_(1))-sqrt(I_(2)))^(2))`
