The minimum intensity of sound is zero at a point due to two sources of nearly equal frequencies, when
Two sources are vibrating in opposite phase
The amplitude of two sources are equal
At the point of observation, the amplitudes of two S.H.M. produced by two sources are equal and both the S.H.M. are along the same straight line
Both the sources are in the same phase
If two waves of nearly equal frequency superpose, theygive beats if they both travel in straight line and Imin=0 if they have equal amplitudes.
