Chapter 35, Problem 35.6DQ
The two sources S1 and S2 shown in Fig. 35.3 emit waves of the same wavelength λ and are in phase with each other. Suppose S1 is a weaker source, so that the waves emitted by S1 have half the amplitude of the waves emitted by S2. How would this affect the positions of the antinodal lines and nodal lines? Would there be total reinforcement at points on the antinodal curves? Would there be total cancellation at points on the nodal curves? Explain your answers.

Are these sources in phase or out of phase?
Make a table with rows labeled P, Q, and R and columns labeled r1, r2, Δr, and C/D. Fill in the table for points P, Q, and R, giving the distances as multiples of λ and indicating, with a C or a D, whether the interference at that point is constructive or destructive.
Can you help me with number 3 please.
The analysis of any two-point source interference pattern and a successful determination of wavelength demands an ability to sort through the measured information and equating the values with the symbols in Young's equation. Apply your understanding by interpreting the following statements and identifying the values of y, d, m and L. Finally, perform some conversions of the given information such that all information share the same unit.
