Two coherent monochromatic point sources S 1 and S 2 of wavelength
= 600 nm are placed symmetrically on either side of the centre of the circle as shown. The sources are separated by a distance d = 1.8 mm. This arrangement produces interference fringes visible as alternate bright and dark spots on the circumference of the circle. The angular separation between two consecutive bright spots is
