While conduction the Young's double slit experiment, a student replaced the two slits with a large opaque plate in the x-y plane containing two small holes that act as two coherent point sources (S_(1),S_(2)) emitting light of wavelength 600nm. The student mistakenly placed the screen parallel to the x-z plane (for zgt0) at a distance D=3 m from the mid-point of S_(1) , S_(2) , as shown schematically in the figure. The distance between the sources d=0.6003 mm . The origin O is at the intersection of the screen and the line joining S_(1)S_(2) . Which of the following is (are) true of the intensity pattern of the screen?
