Concept explainers
The standing waves can be said to be due to interference in space and beat can be said to be interference in time
Answer to Problem 11Q
Solution:
Beats Waves are spread on all the direction. Standing wave spread opposite direction
Explanation of Solution
In beats we concentrate on sound t received the detector and find out its changing with time. Interfering waves are spreading all the direction with same frequency and amplitude
In standing waves we find an extended region of space at any instant of time. In case of standing wave they spread in opposite direction with same frequency and nearly same amplitude
