Condition for generating a stable interference pattern
Coherent waves are two circular waves of same frequency, wavelength, amplitude and phase
Antinodal lines (A)
Antinodal lines :lines that link up the points of constructive interference of the same path difference
Nodal lines (N)
Nodal lines :
lines that link up the points of destructive interference of the same path difference
Interference and energy redistribution
•According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroyed
• Interference is just a process of energy redistribution
energy at the points of destructive interference
energy at the points of constructive interference
