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
    $\frac{9}{49}$

In a double slit experiment,the separation between the slits is $d = 0.25 \, cm$ and the distance of the screen $D = 100 \, cm$ from the slits. If the wavelength of light used is $\lambda = 6000 \mathring{A}$ and $I_0$ is the intensity of the central bright fringe,the intensity at a distance $x = 4 \times 10^{-5} \, m$ from the central maximum is
