  • A
    $I_{0}$
  • B
    $2 I_{0}$
  • C
    $4 I_{0}$

The width of one of the two slits in a Young's double slit experiment is three times the other slit. If the amplitude of the light coming from a slit is proportional to the slit-width,the ratio of minimum to maximum intensity in the interference pattern is $x: 4$ where $x$ is ..... .

In Young's double-slit experiment,the intensity at a point is $1/4$ of the maximum intensity. The angular position of this point is:
