Two coherent light sources A and B with ...

Two coherent light sources A and B with separation `2lambda` or placed on the x-axis symmetrically about the origin. They emit light of wavelength `lambda`. Obtain the positions of maxima on a circle of large radius, lying in the x-y plane and centre at the origin.
