In Young's double slit experiment, one of the slit is wider than other, so that the amplitude of the light from one slit is double of that from other slit. If `I_(m)` be the maximum intensity, the resultant intensity I when they interfere at phase difference `phi` is given by

A

`(I_(m))/(9)(1+8cos^(2)((phi)/(2)))`

B

`(I_(m))/(9)(4+5cosphi)`

C

`(I_(m))/(3)(1+2cos^(2)((phi)/(2)))`

D

`(I_(m))/(5)(1+4cos^(2)((phi)/(2)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A


For bright fringe `S_(1)P-S_(2)P=nlamda`
So fringes are concentric circles (centre of origin)
