In a Young's double slit experiment,the separation betwen the two slits is d and the wavelength of the light is `lambda`.The intensity of light falling on the slit 1 is four times the intesntiy of light falling on slit 2.Choose the correct choice(s).

A

If `d = lambda`, the screen will contain only one maximum.

B

If `lamdaltdlt2lamda ` at least one more maximum (besides the central maximum) will be observed on the screen.

C

If the intensity of light falling on slit 1 is reduced so that it becomes equal to that of slit 2, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase.

D

If the intensity of light falling on slit 2 is increased so that it becomes equal to that of slit 1, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase.
