  • Option 2)

    \sqrt{2}a\cos\theta

  • Option 3)

    4a\cos\frac{\theta}{2}

Resultant amplitude 

A_{R}= 2a \cos \left ( \frac{\Theta }{2} \right )= 2\times 2a \cos \left ( \frac{\Theta }{2} \right ) = 4a \cos \left ( \frac{\Theta }{2} \right )

 

Resultant Intensity -

I=I_{1}+I_{2}+2\sqrt{I_{1}I_{2}}.\cos \phi

 

- wherein

\phi = phase\: dif\! ference
