Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

Many of the topics discussed in this chapter are useful beyond the topics of mechanical waves. It is hard to conceive of a mechanical wave with sharp corners, but you could encounter such a wave form in your digital electronics class, as shown below.

As the number of people at a party increases,you must raise your voice for a listener to hear you againstthe background noise of the other partygoers. However, once youreach the level of yelling, the only way you can be heard is if youmove closer to your listener, into the listener’s “personal space.”Model the situation by replacing you with an isotropic point sourceof fixed power P and replacing your listener with a point that absorbspart of your sound waves.These points are initially separatedby ri=1.20 m. If the background noise increases by b=5 dB, thesound level at your listener must also increase.What separation rfis then required?
