List the condition for the destructive interference to take place.

What is constructive interference?

Figure shows two coherent sources S_1 and S_2 which emit sound of wavelength lamda in phase. The separation between the sources is 3lamda . A circular wire at large radius is placed in such a way that S_1 S_2 lies in its plane and the middle point of S_1 S_2 , is at the centre of the wire. Find the angular positions 0 on the wire for which constructive interference takes place.
