The sources of sound $A$ and $B$ produce a wave of $350 Hz$ in the same phase. $A$ particle $P$ is vibrating under the influence of these two waves. If the amplitudes at $P$ produced by the two waves are $0.3 mm$ and $0.4 mm$,the resultant amplitude of the point $P$ will be,when $AP-BP=25 cm$ and the velocity of sound is $350 m s^{-1}$. (in $mm$)
