In an interference experiment,two coherent waves $S_1$ and $S_2$ are represented by $y_1 = 10 \sin(\omega t)$ and $y_2 = 10 \sin(\omega t - \pi/6)$ respectively. When these waves superimpose to form an interference pattern,the maximum intensity is ....... (Assume $K = 1$)

The interference pattern is obtained with two coherent light sources of intensity ratio $n$. In the interference pattern,the ratio $\frac{I_{max} - I_{min}}{I_{max} + I_{min}}$ will be
