Two coherent monochromatic point sources and of wavelength are placed symmetrically on either side of the center of the circle as shown. The sources are separated by a distance This arrangement produces interference fringes visible as alternate bright and dark spots on the circumference of the circle. The angular separation between two consecutive bright spots is Which of the following options is/are correct? 

- AThe angular separation between two consecutive bright spots decreases as we move from P1 to P2 along the first quadrant.
- BAt P2 the order of the fringe will be maximum.
- CA dark spot will be formed at the point P2.
- DThe total number of fringes produced between P1 and P2 in the first quadrant is close to 3000.
