Answer #1

force constructive interference, phase difference is given by,

= 2n

where n is an integer, so for n= 0, = 0.

Thus the correct option will be zero.

    We are given Young's double-slit set-up, however, instead of two point sources issuing "in-phase" sine waves at the source points, the sine waves are "out of phase". Specifically, the sources are "out of phase" by a quarter wavelength. Assume temporarily for convenience that the waves have wavelength "2π". The specifications provided thus far allow that the two wave trains arriving at "a point" on a distant screen corresponding to a "path length difference" of "Δx" be represented by "sin(x)" and...
