Correct answer

C. 3:23: 2

Step-by-step solution

Intensity at a point in Young's double slit experiment is given by
I=\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{I}1+_1+\mathrm{I}_2+2 \sqrt{\mathrm{I}1_1\mathrm{I}_2} \cos \phi
Here I1=\mathrm{I}_1=\mathrm{I}2=_2=\mathrm{I}0_0 (say)
At PP
∴\therefore\mathrm{I}p=_{\mathrm{p}}=\mathrm{I}0+_0+\mathrm{I}0+2_0+2\mathrm{I}0cos⁡π3=2_0 \cos \frac{\pi}{3}=2\mathrm{I}0+2_0+2\mathrm{I}0×12=3_0 \times \frac{1}{2}=3\mathrm{I}0_0
At QQ
IQ=\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{Q}}=\mathrm{I}0+_0+\mathrm{I}0+2_0+2\mathrm{I}0cos⁡90∘=2_0 \cos 90^{{}^{\circ}}=2\mathrm{I}0_0
\frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{P}}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{Q}}}=\frac{3}{2}
