A narrow monochromatic beam of light of intensity I is incident on a glass plate. Another identical glass plate is kept close to the first one and parallel to it. Each plate reflects 25% of the incident light and transmits the remaining. Calculate the ratio of minimum and maximum intensity in the interference pattern fromed by two beams obtained after reflection from each plate.
