Suppose the light waves coming from both slits in a Youngs

Chapter 27, Problem 27.8

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose the light waves coming from both slits in a Youngs double-slit experiment had their phases shifted by an amount equivalent to a half-wavelength. (a) Would the pattern be the same or would the positions of the light and dark fringes be interchanged? (b) Would the pattern be the same or would the positions of the light and dark fringes be interchanged if the light coming from only one of the slits had its phase shifted by an amount equivalent to a half-wavelength?
