368122 Assertion :
Two point coherent sources of light \(S_{1}\), and \(S_{2}\) are placed on a line as shown. \(P\) and \(Q\) are two points on that line. If at point \(P\) maximum intensity is observed then maximum intensity should also be observed at \(Q\).

Reason :
In the figure of assertion if the distance \(\left| {{S_1}P - {S_2}P} \right|\) is equal to distance \(\left| {{S_2}Q - {S_1}Q} \right|\) then maximum intensity is observed at both \(P\) and \(Q\).
