The equations of two waves are given by \(y_{1}=5 \sin 2 \pi(x-v t) \,c m\,\) \(y_{2}=3 \sin 2 \pi(x-v t+1.5) \,c m\) These waves are simultaneously passing through a string. The amplitude of the resulting wave is.........\(cm\)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(A_{1}=5 \quad A_{2}=3\)
\(\Delta \theta=2 \pi(1.5)=3 \pi\)
\(A_{\text {net }}=\sqrt{A_{1}^{2}+A_{2}^{2}+2 A_{1} A_{2} \cos (3 \pi)}\)
\(=\left| A _{1}- A _{2}\right|\)
\(=2 \,cm\)
