In the adjacent diagram,$CP$ represents a wavefront and $AO$ & $BP$ are the corresponding two rays. Find the condition on $\theta$ for constructive interference at $P$ between the ray $BP$ and the reflected ray $OP$.

Two beams of light having intensities $I$ and $4I$ interfere to produce fringes on a screen. The phase difference between the beams at point $A$ is $\pi/2$ and at point $B$ is $2\pi$. Find the resultant intensities at points $A$ and $B$.

Consider the following statements about interference of light:
$A$. The interference fringes are equally bright and equally spaced.
$B$. At the centre of a bright fringe,the intensity is four times the intensity of the incident wave.
$C$. For constructive interference of two waves,the crest of one wave coincides with the trough of another wave.
Which of the above statements are correct?

Four monochromatic and coherent sources of light,emitting waves in phase of wavelength $\lambda$,are placed at the points $x = 0, d, 2d$,and $3d$ on the $x$-axis. The intensity of the waves reaching a point $P$ far away on the $+x$ axis from each of the four sources is almost the same,and equal to $I_0$. Then,

Two waves having amplitudes in the ratio $5:1$ produce interference. The ratio of the maximum to minimum intensity is
