The path difference between two interfering waves of equal intensities at a point on the screen is $\frac{\lambda}{4}$. The ratio of intensity at this point and that at the central fringe will be

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 $I$)
