Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier andemit sinusoidal waves in phase. Speaker B is 2.00 m to the right ofspeaker A. The frequency of the sound waves produced by theloudspeakers is 206 Hz. Consider Point P between the speakers andalong the line connecting them, a distance x to the right ofspeaker A. Both speakers emit sound waves that travel directly fromthe speaker to point P.
a) For what values of x will destructive interference occur atpoint P?
b) For what values of x will constructive interference occur atpoint P?
