Two adjacent transmitters are 1.0m apart with a receiving aerial R halfway between them. The transmitters emit coherent em waves of wavelength 3.0cm.

The student finds that the signal at the receiver R falls from max to zero when R is moved 0.75 cm towards a transmitter. Explain this observation. Make it clear how signal can be zero and why the distance moved is 0.75 cm.
