Four light sources produce the following four waves:
$(i)$ $y_1 = a \sin(\omega t + \phi_1)$
(ii) $y_2 = a \sin(2\omega t)$
(iii) $y_3 = d' \sin(\omega t + \phi_2)$
(iv) $y_4 = d' \sin(3\omega t + \phi)$
Superposition of which two waves gives rise to interference?

When two light waves of equal intensity superimpose,the maximum intensity obtained is $I$. If the intensity of one of the waves is quadrupled,then the maximum intensity obtained is

Two coherent sources of intensity ratio $9:4$ produce interference. The intensity ratio of maxima and minima of the interference pattern is
