To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have a Young's double slit experiment with monochromatic light of wavelength \( \lambda \). The intensity of light from each slit is \( I_0 \). ### Step 2: Identify the Path Difference The problem states that we need to find the resultant intensity at a point where the path difference between the two waves is \( \frac{\lambda}{2} \). ...
