Two coherent narrow slits emitting light of wavelength λ in the same phase are placed
parallel to each other at a small separation of 2 λ . The light is collected on a screen S which is placed at a distance D (>> λ ) from the slit S1 and shown in figure. Find the distance x such that the intensity at point P is equal to the intensity at O.
