In Young’s double slit experiment, the two slits act as coherent sources of light waves of equal amplitude a and of wavelength λ. In another experiment with the same setup, the two slits are source of light waves of equal amplitude a and wavelength λ but are incoherent. The ratio of the intensity of light at the mid-point of the screen in the first case to that in the second case is:
