Waves and Sound — JEE physics STD 12 Science — Question

CBSE BoardEnglish MediumSTD 12 ScienceJEE physicsWaves and Sound1 Mark
Question
Assertion : It is not possible to have interference between the waves produced by two violins.
Reason : For interference of two waves the phase difference between the waves must remain constant.
✓

Answer

(a) Since the initial phase difference between the two waves coming from different violins changes, therefore, the waves produced by two different violins does not interfere because two waves interfere only when the phase difference between them remain constant throughout.
