At a point in the pattern where the phase difference between the waves from the two slits is 58.0 ∘, what is the intensity? Give your answer as a fraction of I0.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The intensity is 0.559.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle = 58.0°

The intensity at the peak of the central maximum is I₀

We need to calculate the intensity

Using formula of intensity

[tex]I=I_{0}\cos^2(\dfrac{\phi}{2})[/tex]

Where, I = intensity

[tex]I_{0}[/tex]=maximum intensity

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\dfrac{I}{I_{0}}=\cos^{2}(\dfrac{58.0}{2})[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{I}{I_{0}}=0.559[/tex]

Hence, The intensity is 0.559.
