Double-slit interference experiment by sound waves

Reference no: EM13664638

Two small stereo speakers are 1.6m apart and act as a double-slit interference experiment by sound waves. If the opposite wall of the room is 7.5 m away and the sound frequency is 1.6 kHz, what is the distance among the two interference maxima nearest the center of the wall? Suppose the speakers act as a point sources of sound.
