- A n + 1 n _ _
- B n + 1 2 n _ _
- C ( n + 1 ) 2 n _ _
- D ( n + 1 ) 2 2 n _ _
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Maximum Intensity is given as I max = ( I 1 + I 2 ) 2
Minimum intensity is given as I min = ( I 1 _ I 2 ) 2
Given I 1 I 2 = n
I max I min = ( I 1 + I 2 I 1 _ I 2 ) 2
= ( I 1 I 2 + 1 I 1 I 2 _ 1 ) 2 = ( n + 1 n _ 1 ) 2
I max _ I min I max + I min = I max I min _ 1 I max I min + 1
= ( n + 1 n _ 1 ) 2 _ 1 ( n + 1 n _ 1 ) 2 + 1
= ( n + 1 ) 2 _ ( n _ 1 ) 2 ( n + 1 ) 2 + ( n _ 1 ) 2
= 4 n 2 ( n + 1 ) = 2 n n + 1
