In YDSE, intensity of light from two slits is proportional to their width, and also to the square of amplitudes of light from the slits, i.e.,

At points, where crest of one wave falls on crest of the other and through falls on trough, intensity of light is maximum. Interference is said to be constructive. At points, where crest of one wave falls on trough of the other, resultant intensity of light is minimum. The interference is said to be destructive.

For sustained interference, the two sources must be coherent. Two independent sources cannot be coherent.
The ratio of intensities in the interference pattern in the above question will be

1(x) A10. CONSERVATION OF CHARGE Conservation of charge is the property by virtue of which total charge of an isolated system always remains constant. Within an isolated system consisting of many charged bodies, charges may get redistributed due to teractions among the bodies, but the total charge of the system shall remain the same. For example, when we rub two bodies, what one body gains in charge, the other body loses the same rarge carrying particles may be created or destroyed in a process. For example, a neutron turns into a oton an electron. The proton and electon large is zero before and after the and electron thus created have equal and opposite charges. The total alike pairs only. Following examples illustrate the property of conservation of charge. (i) In the phenomenon of pair production, a ray photon materialises into an electron and a positron ving total charge , which is the initial charge on a photon. (ii) In annhilation of matter, an electron and a positron annhilate eachother to produce two -ray otons. Charge is thus conserved. (iii) In all nuclear transformations, charge number is always conserved. For example, in radioactive decay of , the nucleus is transformed into with the emission an alpha particle, which is a helium nucleus i.e. Note that in applying the conservation of charge principle, we must add the charges algebraically, h regard to their signs.
