In Young's double slit experiment, the 10th maximum of wavelength `lambda_(1)` is at distance of `y_(1)` from the central maximum. When the wavelength of the source is changed to `lambda_(2)` , 5th maximum is at a distance of `y_(2)` from its central masximum. Then `(y_(1))/(y_(2))` is

A

`(2lamda_2)/lamda_1`

B

`lamda_1/(2lamda_2)`

C
