A beam with wavelength `lambda` falls on a stack of partially reflecting planes with separation `d`. The angle `theta` that the beam should make with planes so that the beams reflected from successive planes may interfere constructively is (where n=1, 2, ...)

A

`sin^(-1)((nlambda)/(d))`

B

`tan^(-1)((nlambda)/(d))`

C

`sin^(-1)((nlambda)/(2d))`

D

`cos^(-1)((nlambda)/(2d))`
