Question 20

Two coherent radio transmitters, T1 T_1\,T1​ and T2T_2T2​, emit waves in phase. A receiver at point R R\,R detects a minimum of intensity due to destructive interference of the waves.

The distance from T1 T_1\,T1​ to R R\,R is 1.25 m and the distance from T2 T_2\,T2​ to R R\,R is 2.45 m. The radio waves have wavelength λ\lambdaλ.

Which value of λ \lambda\,λ is not possible?
