Determining Wave Parameters for Interference Pattern

[QUOTE="ilii, post: 5000953, member: 521928"] λ= 7mm dS1S2=23mm (distance between the two sources) PnS1=62mm (source 1 to the node point) PnS2=81mm (source 2 to the node point) I was only given these two equations: [B]|PnS1-PnS2|=(n-1/2)λ |PmS1-PmS2|=mλ[/B] where m=the antinode Maybe I just need help understanding what the question is asking. I am not sure what is meant by "Measure the wavelength of the waves, the distance between the sources, and the path distance from each of the sources to point P." and then it asks me to "Choose a point on any antinodal line and [B]show the complete calculation for wavelength[/B].". If it asks me to 'measure the wavelength of the waves" ... then asks me to "[B]show the complete calculation for wavelength"[/B]... how are these two dissimilar and how would I go about finding the complete calculation for wavelength? I thought I measured the wavelength already. I must be missing something fundamental... [/QUOTE]
