प्रश्न
Why two light sources must be of equal intensity to obtain a well-defined interference pattern?

उत्तर
This is because, only if the intensities of two light sources are equal, the intensity of dark fringes (destructive interference) is zero and the contrast between bright and dark fringes will be maximum, thereby giving rise to the well-defined interference pattern.

A long narrow horizontal slit is paced 1 mm above a horizontal plane mirror. The interference between the light coming directly from the slit and that after reflection is seen on a screen 1.0 m away from the slit. If the mirror reflects only 64% of the light energy falling on it, what will be the ratio of the maximum to the minimum intensity in the interference pattern observed on the screen?
The intensity at the central maximum (O) in a Young’s double slit experimental set-up shown in the figure is IO. If the distance OP equals one-third of the fringe width of the pattern, show that the intensity at point P, would equal `(I_0)/4`.
