A radio station operating at 120 MHz has two identical antennas that are in phase. Antenna 2 is 10 m to the right of antenna 1. Consider a small radio receiver at a point P on the line joining the two antennas. The distance of point P from antenna 1 is x (assume x <5 meaning it is closer to Antenna 1). What is the minimum value of x for which the receiver will get a minimum signal? a) 3.125 m                        b) 0.625 m                        c) 1.875 m                        d) none of these.
