4. A two-point source interference pattern is generated in a ripple tank by identical sources vibrating in phase and located 12.0 cm apart. There are 7 nodal lines observed on each side of the right bisector. If the wavelength of the source is doubled and they remain in phase: The number of nodal lines observed doubles the frequency doubles the speed of the waves doubles the number of nodal lines decreases to half O the average distance between nodal lines decreases
