Q141 / 180 · KCET 2012 · Physics

Frequencies of light incident on a system of scattering particles are in the ratio of $1: 2$. Then, the intensity of scattered light in a particular directions is

  • Correct answer
    A
    $1: 16$
  • B
    $1: 4$
  • C
    $1: 2$
  • D
    $1: 8$

Solution

Scattering $\propto \frac{1}{\lambda^{4}}$ or scattering $\propto \mathrm{f}^{4}$ Hence, (a) is correct.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
