The two light beams having intensities II and 9I9I interfere to produce a fringe pattern on a screen. The phase difference between the beams is π2\dfrac{\pi}{2} at point PP and π\pi at point QQ. Then the difference between the resultant intensities at PP and QQ will be :

Options

  1. A2I2I
  2. B6I6I
  3. C5I5I
  4. D7I7I

Correct answer

B. 6I6I

Step-by-step solution

Resultant intensity is given by, Iresultant=I1+I2+2I1I2cosϕ{I}_{resultant} = {I}_{1} + {I}_{2} + 2\sqrt{{I}_{1}{I}_{2}}cosϕ

At PP, IP=9I+I+29I×Icos⁡(π2)=10I{I}_{P} = 9I + I + 2\sqrt{9I \times I}\cos \left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right) = 10I

At QQ, IQ=9I+I+29I×Icos⁡(π)=10I−2×3I=4I{I}_{Q} = 9I + I + 2\sqrt{9I \times I}\cos \left(\pi\right) = 10I - 2 \times 3I = 4I

Now, difference between intensities is 10I−4I=6I10I - 4I = 6I
