In Lake Michigan two completely identical sinusoidal waves superimpose. They have the same wave number (2.5m^-1), wave speed (500m/s), and amplitude (5cm). However, they are out of phase by 200°. What would be the resultants wave at x=3m and t=4s?
Two waves travelling in the same direction are given by: y1 = 0.2 sin(2πx-20t+φ) and y2 = 0.2 sin(2πx-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, ∆x, corresponding to a fully destructive interference is:
Consider two waves defined by the wave functions
y1(x,t)=0.50m sin(2π/3.00mx+2π/4.00s t) y1(x,t)= and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π/6.00mx−2π/4.00st).
What are the similarities and differences between the two waves?
