Two waves travelling in the same direction are given by: y1 = 0.2 sin(2rtx-20t+p) and y2 = 0.2 sin(2rtx-20t), where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. If the two waves start at the same moment, then the path difference, Ax. corresponding to a fully destructive interference is: O 4/3 m O 3/4 m O 1/3 m O 2/3 m O 1/2 m

When two waves interfere constructively or destructively, is there any gain or loss in energy in the system of the waves? Explain.
2. Explain why we cannot hear the sound frequency below the limit?
We know that sound cannot travel through the vacuum of space and yet astronauts on a space walk can use radios to talk to each other. Explain this.
If the sound of an airplane does not come from the part of the sky where the plane is seen, does this imply that the airplane is traveling faster than the speed of sound? Explain.
1. Is the Doppler shift real or just a sensory illusion? Explain your answer.
How many types of waves are there on surface of water? Explain.
It's a sunny October day at a baseball park. The air temperature is a comfortable 10.79 oC. A spectator just beyond center field about 203.68 meters from the home plate sees the batter strike the ball. How long (in seconds) before he will hear the crack of the bat? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Do all the waves need a medium to travel? Why?
Sound waves of 675 ?? travel at a speed of 345 ?/? through a doorway in a soundproof wall.If the doorway is 1.5 ? wide, how many “quiet spots” (locations where no sound is heard”) will there be along a line parallel to the wall? What will be the angular location of these quiet spots?
Distinguish between transverse and longitudinal waves with appropriate examples.
