To solve the problem of calculating the ratio of two points on a screen in a Young's double-slit experiment with given phase differences, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Intensity Formula**: In a Young's double-slit experiment, the resultant intensity \( I \) at a point on the screen due to two coherent sources can be expressed as: \[ I = I_1 + I_2 + 2\sqrt{I_1 I_2} \cos \phi ...
