In a Young's double slit experiment,the intensity at a point where the path difference is $\frac{\lambda}{6}$ ($\lambda$ being the wavelength of the light used) is $I$. If $I_0$ denotes the maximum intensity,$I/I_0$ is equal to

  • A
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{4}$
