Consider two sinusoidal waves (1 and 2) of identical wavelength A, period T, and maximum amplitude A. A snapshot of one of these waves taken at a certain time is displayed in the figure below. (Figure 1) Let y₁ (z, t) and y2 (x, t) represent the displacement of each wave at position at time t. If these waves were to be in the same location (2) at the same time, they would interfere with one another. This would result in a single wave with a displacement y (z, t) given by y(z, t)= y(x, t) + y2(x, t). This equation states that at time t the displacement y (x, t) of the resulting wave at position z is the algebraic sum of the displacements of the waves 1 and 2 at position z at time t. When the maximum displacement of the resulting wave is less than the amplitude of the original waves, that is, when ymax A. the waves are said to interfere constructively because the…arrow_forward

- Two loudspeakers are placed side by side a distance d = 4.00 m apart. A listener observes maximum constructive interference while standing in front of the loudspeakers, equidistant from both of them. The distance from the listener to the point halfway between the speakers is 1 = 5.00 m. One of the loudspeakers is then moved directly away from the other. Once the speaker is moved a distance r = 60.0 cm from its original position, the listener, who is not moving, observes destructive interference for the first time. Find the speed of sound in the air if both speakers emit a tone of frequency 700 Hz.
