Two sources with intensity I(0) and 4I(0...

Two sources with intensity `I_(0)` and `4I_(0)` respectively interefere at a point in a medium. Then the maximum and minimum possible intensity would be

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`l_(max)=(sqrtl_1+sqrtl_2)^2`
here, `l_1=l_0 and l_2=4l_0`
`therefore I_(max)=(sqrtl_0+sqrt4l_0)^2=9l_0`
and `I_(min)=(sqrtl_1-sqrtl_2)^2=l_0`
