Q.

Two waves are simultaneously passing through a string and their equations are: y1 = A1 sin k(x – vt), y2 = A2 sin k(x – vt + x0). Given amplitudes A1 = 12 mm and A2 = 5 mm, x0 = 3.5 cm and wave number k = 6.28 cm–1. The amplitude of the resulting wave will be .......... mm.

Equations are y1 = A1sink(x–vt) and y2 = A2 sin k(x–vt+x0). we get:

y1 = 12sin 6.28(x – vt) and

y2 = 5sin 6.28(x – vt + 3.5)

Phase shift:

=2πλ(x) 

=  k(x)   (where, K=2πλ)

= 6.28 x 3.5 = 7π

AnetA12+A22+2A1A1cos

Anet122+52+2×12×5cos(7π) = 144+25-120=7 mm
