Phase Difference of Destructive Interference Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Phase Difference for Destructive Interference is:

$\Phi_{di} = (2n + 1) \pi$

Where:

$\Phi_{di}$ is the Phase Difference for Destructive Interference (rad)
$n$ is the Integer

Definition

Phase Difference for Destructive Interference is the difference in phase between two or more waves resulting in destructive interference, where the amplitude of the resulting wave is minimum or zero.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Integer ( $n$ ) = 5

Using the formula:

$\Phi_{di} = (2 \cdot 5 + 1) \pi$

Evaluating:

$\Phi_{di} = 34.5575191894877 \text{ rad}$

The Phase Difference for Destructive Interference is 34.5575191894877 rad.
