The intensity of sound at a point PP is I0I_0, when the sounds reach this point directly and in same phase from two identical sources S1\mathrm{S}_1 and S2\mathrm{S}_2. The power of S1\mathrm{S}_1 is now reduced by 64%64 \% and the phase difference (ϕ)(\phi) between S1\mathrm{S}_1 and S2\mathrm{S}_2 is varied continuously. The maximum and minimum intensities recorded at PP are now Imax I_{\text {max }} and Imin I_{\text {min }} such that

Options

  1. AImax⁡=0.64\mathrm{I}_{\max }=0.64\mathrm{I}0_0
  2. BImin⁡=0.36\mathrm{I}_{\min }=0.36\mathrm{I}0_0
  3. CImax⁡Imin⁡=16\frac{I_{\max }}{I_{\min }}=16
  4. DImax⁡Imin⁡=169\frac{I_{\max }}{I_{\min }}=\frac{16}{9}

Correct answer

C. Imax⁡Imin⁡=16\frac{I_{\max }}{I_{\min }}=16
