Resultant Intensity of Incoherent Sources Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Resultant Intensity of Incoherent Sources is:

\[ I_{IS} = I_1 + I_2 \]

Where:

\(I_{IS}\) is the Resultant Intensity of Incoherent Sources (cd)
\(I_1\) is Intensity 1 (cd)
\(I_2\) is Intensity 2 (cd)

Definition

Resultant Intensity of Incoherent Sources is the combined intensity of light or other waves from multiple incoherent sources, resulting in a new intensity pattern.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Intensity 1 (\(I_1\)) = 9 cd
Intensity 2 (\(I_2\)) = 18 cd

Using the formula:

\[ I_{IS} = 9 + 18 \]

Evaluating:

\[ I_{IS} = 27 \text{ cd} \]

The Resultant Intensity is 27 cd.
