COMEDK · Physics · 16. Waves and Sound
If two waves of the same frequency and amplitude respectively on superposition produce a resultant disturbance of the same amplitude the waves differ in phase by
- A \(\pi / 3\)
- B \(2 \pi / 3\)
- C \(\pi\)
- D zero
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2 \pi / 3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Given that, amplitude and frequency of two waves are same. Hence, resultant amplitude due to superposition of two waves with phase difference \(\phi\) is given by…
