Problem

Two coherent sound sources emit waves of wavelength 1.5 m1.5\,\text{m} in phase. At a point PP the path difference between the waves from the two sources is 0.75 m0.75\,\text{m}. What kind of interference occurs at PP? (a) Constructive interference; maximum intensity (b) Destructive interference; minimum intensity (c) No definite interference pattern (d) Destructive interference; maximum intensity
