What would be the resultant intensity at a point of constructive interference, if there are two identical coherent waves of intensity I’ producing an interference pattern?(a) 4 I’(b) 0(c) I’(d) 2 I’The question was posed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.I would like to ask this question from Wave Optics topic in division Wave Optics of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) 4 I’

Explanation: Resultant intensity at the point of CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE is GIVEN as FOLLOWS:

I = I’ + I’ + 2√I’I’ cos 0^o

I = 4 I^‘

Therefore, the value of the resultant intensity at a point of constructive interference is 4 I’.
