In a pond two Water Skeeterbugs are taping their antennae on the water surface simultaneously and in sync. They create identical continuous waves with wavelength of 0.87 meters. A leaf is also floating on the pond and 0.45 meters away from the first Water Skeeterbug and 2.4075 m away from the second one. a. What is the path length difference from both sources of waves to the leaf? (in meters) b. What is the path length difference in terms of wavelengths? (in λ) c. Is the leaf sitting on a line of destructive or constructive interference? Explain.
