Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 23 January (Evening Shift)

The width of one of the two slits in Young's double slit experiment is d while that of the other slit is x d. If the ratio of the maximum to the minimum intensity in the interference pattern on the screen is 9:4 then what is the value of x ? (Assume that the field strength varies according to the slit width.)

Answer

(4) 5

Solution

I A2

Amplitude is proportional to the slit width: A1=A, A2=xA.

I I = (x+1)2(x-1)2= 94 x+1x-1= 32

2x+2=3x-3

x=5
