Two point sources (S1 and S2) emit light in phase with a wavelength of 600nm and the same amplitude. A detector P is shown on the x axis, which extends through the source S1. The phase difference between the light arriving at P from each of the two sources is recorded as P is shifted indefinitely to the right along the x axis from x=0.The result is displayed in the graph below, whose horizontal scale is not specified. How many intensity minima are detected by P? a)1 b)2 c)3 d)4 e)5 f)6 g)7 h)8
