Answer:
interference is between destructive and constructive
Explanation:
The interference of two sound waves periodicity in phase by the speakers is
Δr = [tex]\frac{\phi }{2\pi } \ \lambda[/tex]
in this case they indicate that the frequency is f = 700 Hz, the wave speed is
v =λ f
λ = v / f
λ = 341/700
λ = 0.487 m
Let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance that each wave travels
r₁ = [tex]\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}[/tex]
let's measure the distance from speaker 1
r₁ = [tex]\sqrt{5^2 + 1^2}[/tex]
r₁ = 5,099 m
the distance from the second speaker
r₂ = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}
r₂ = [tex]\sqrt{5^2 +3^2}[/tex]
r₂= 5.831 m
the difference in the way is
Δr = r₂ -r₁
Δr = 5,831 - 5,099
Δr = 0.732 m
[tex]\frac{ \phi }{2\pi }[/tex] = Δr /λ
\frac{ \phi }{2\pi } = 0.732 / 0.487
\frac{ \phi }{2\pi } = 1.50
this is the phase difference this phase difference is approximately
Ф= [tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex] =1.57,
so the interference is between destructive ( Ф = π) and constructive (Ф=2π)
