Physics Wave and Sound Intensity of Sound, Decibel Scale and Interference MCQ (Single Correct)

Two identical loudspeakers are located at points A & B, 2 m apart. The loudspeakers are driven by the same amplifier (coherent and are in phase). A small detector is moved out from point B along a line perpendicular to the line connecting A & B. Taking speed of sound in air as 332 m/s, find the frequency below which there will be no position along the line BC at which destructive interference occurs.

The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION

(83 Hz)

if path difference at detector is always less than λ/2 then no destructive interference is possible. Here max. path difference is 2

> 2

λ > 4 m

> 4 m

n < < < 83 Hz
