Questions  

The displacement of the interfering light waves are y1=4sinωt and  y2=3sinωt+π2. What is the amplitude of the resultant wave

a
5
b
7
c
1
d
0

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Since φ=π2⇒A=a12+a22=(4)2+(3)2=5

Two waves are propagating to the point P along a straight line produced by two sources A and B of simple harmonic and of equal frequency. The amplitude of every wave at P is ‘a’ and the phase of A is ahead by π3 than that of B and the distance AP is greater than BP by 50 cm. Then the resultant amplitude at the point P will be, if the wavelength is 1 meter
