The ratio of maximum to minimum intensity due to the superposition of two waves is $\frac{49}{9}$. Then the ratio of the intensities of the component waves is:

  • A
    $6.25$
  • B
    $0.64$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{49}$
  • D
    $\frac{9}{49}$

Two beams of light having intensities $I$ and $4I$ interfere to produce a fringe pattern on a screen. The phase difference between the beams is $\pi / 2$ at point $A$ and $\pi$ at point $B$. Then the difference between the resultant intensities at $A$ and $B$ is (in $I$)

The intensity ratio of the two interfering beams of light is $\beta$. What is the value of $\frac{I_{\max} - I_{\min}}{I_{\max} + I_{\min}}$?
