two light sources emit waves of =1 m which are in phase. the two waves from these sources meet at a distant point. wave 1 traveled 2 m to reach point, and wave 2 traveled 3 m. when the waves meet, they are?

Step 1
Given that wave 1 traveled 2m and wave 2 traveled 3m, the path difference is 3m - 2m = 1m. Show more…

Two light sources emit waves that are in phase with a wavelength of λ = 200 nm. The two waves meet at a distant point where Wave #1 has traveled 100 nm. The distance traveled by Wave #2 is variable. Which of the distances for Wave #2, listed below, would result in destructive interference? 500 nm 300 nm 700 nm 250 nm 800 nm

Two sources emit waves that are in phase with each other. What is the longest wavelength that will give constructive interference at an observation point 161 $\mathrm{m}$ from one source and 295 $\mathrm{m}$ from the other source?
Two identical sources $\mathrm{S}_{1}$ and $\mathrm{S}_{2},$ separated by distance $d,$ coherently emit light of wavelength $\lambda$ uniformly in all direc- tions. Defining the $x$ axis with its origin at $S_{1}$ as shown in Fig. $32,$ find the locations (expressed as multiples of $\lambda )$ where the signals from the two sources are out of phase along this axis for $x>0$ , if $d=3 \lambda.$
