    Two small identical speakers are connected in phase to the same source. The speakers are $3 \,m$ apart and at ear level. An observer stands at $P, 4 \,m$ in front of one speaker as shown alongside. The sound she hears is least intense when the wavelength is $\lambda_1$ and most intense when the wavelength is $\lambda_2$. Then, the possible values of $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are
