Consider the situation shown in figure. The two slits S_1 and S_2 placed symmetrically around the central line are illuminated by a monochromatic light of wavelength lamda . The separation between the slits is d. The light transmitted by the slits falls on a screen Sigma_1 placed at a distance D from the slits. The slit S_3 is at the placed central line and the slit S_4 , is at a distance z from S_3 . Another screen Sigma_2 is placed a further distance D away from 1,1. Find the ratio of the maximum to minimum intensity observed on Sigma_2 if z is equal to a. z=(lamdaD)/(2d) b. (lamdaD)/d c. (lamdaD)/(4d)
