Suppose that the separation between two speakers A and B is 6.90 m and the speakers are vibrating in-phase. They are playing identical 135-Hz tones and the speed of sound is 343 m/s. An observer is seated at a position directly facing speaker B in such a way that his line of sight extending to B is perpendicular to the imaginary line between A and B. What is the largest possible distance between speaker B and the observer, such that he observes destructive interference?

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.
