Question
Two waves y1 and y2 each of frequency
f=5 Hz, wavelength X=2 m, amplitude
A=0.4 m travel in the negative x-direction
with a phase difference of T/2 rad. The
interference of these two waves gives a
wave described by:
Ο y-0.8 sin(πx-10πt+ π/8)
O y=0.4 sin(Ttx+10rt+rt/8)
O y=0.4v2 sin(Tx+10rt+rt/4)
O y=0.4v2 sin(TTx+10rt+rt/8)
None
