A beam of red light has an amplitude 2.5 times the amplitude of second beam of the same colour. Calculate the ratio of the intensities of the two waves.

Answer»

a1 = 2.5 a2

To find: \(\frac{I_1}{I-2}\)

Formula: I ∝ a2

Calculation: From formula,

\(\frac{I_1}{I_2}=(\frac{a_1}{a_2})^2=(\frac{2.5_{a2}}{a_2})\) = (2.5)2 = 6.25
