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.

John William Strutt, Lord Rayleigh (1842–1919), invented an improved foghorn. To warn ships of a coastline, a foghorn should radiate sound in a wide horizontal sheet over the ocean’s surface.

Which is the correct orientation? Decide whether the long dimension of the rectangular opening should be horizontal or vertical and argue for your decision.
