TSny said:Your general method is correct, but your formula for the minima is incorrect. Check your notes or text.
rude man said:Your minima formula is wrong.
No. 2sin(theta) = 0.5 does not yield theta = 30 deg.elemis said:The formulas listed were in my notes.
Okay, for minima : 2λsinθ = mλ m=0.5,1.5,2.5,3.5...
This would give me the required non-integr half wavelengths for a minima, correct ?
EDIT : Hence m =0.5 would mean the first minima is at 30 degrees.
maxima : 2λsinθ = nλ n = 0,1,2,3,4,5...
For n =1 I still get theta to be 90 degrees... I don't see what I'm doing wrong.

No. 2sin(theta) = 1 does not yield theta = 90 deg.
Interference from two radio antennae is a phenomenon that occurs when two radio signals are transmitted from two separate antennas and overlap with each other, causing distortion or disruption of the signal.
Interference occurs when the signals from two antennas are on the same frequency and are close enough to each other that they overlap. This causes the signals to interfere with each other, resulting in distortion or disruption of the original signal.
The effects of interference from two radio antennae can include a decrease in signal strength, distortion of the original signal, and in severe cases, complete disruption of the signal. This can impact the quality and reliability of radio transmissions.
Interference can be prevented by using antennas with different frequencies, increasing the distance between antennas, or by using shielding materials to minimize signal overlap. Properly aligning and positioning the antennas can also help to prevent interference.
Interference from two radio antennae can occur in various settings, such as in radio broadcasting, wireless communication systems, and satellite transmissions. It can also occur in everyday situations, such as using a cell phone in a crowded area where multiple signals are present.
