  2. B33
  3. C22
  4. D11

Correct answer

C. 22

Step-by-step solution

Intensity at centre of bright fringe,

I0=I+I+2II⋅cos⁡0{I}_{0} = I + I + 2\sqrt{II} \cdot \cos 0

I0=2I+2I{I}_{0} = 2I + 2I~ \left[∵ \cos 0 ° = 1\right]</p><p></p><p>= 4I</p><p>SimilarlyIntensityatpoint</p><p>Similarly Intensity at point\dfrac{P}{4}</p><p>(withphasedifference</p><p>(with phase difference= \dfrac{2\pi}{4} = \dfrac{π}{2})</p><p>)</p><p>I^{'} = I + I + 2\sqrt{II}cos\dfrac{π}{2}</p><p></p><p>= 2I + 2\sqrt{II} \times 0</p><p></p><p>= 2I</p><p></p><p>∴ \dfrac{I0}{I '} = \dfrac{4I}{2I} = 2
