The two coherent sources of equal intensity produce a maximum intensity of $100$ units at a point. If the intensity of one of the sources is reduced by $36\%$ by reducing its width,then the intensity of light at the same point will be:

  • A
    $90$
  • B
    $89$
  • C
    $67$
  • D
    $81$

Two coherent sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ and a screen are arranged as shown in the figure. If the distance between the two coherent sources is $n \lambda$ and the distance of the screen from the nearer coherent source $S_2$ is $D$,then the distance of the first bright fringe on the screen from the point $O$ is (where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light emitted by the coherent sources).
