MCQ
If two waves of same frequency and same amplitude respectively, on superimposition produced a resultant disturbance of the same amplitude, the waves differ in phase by
- A$\pi$
- ✓$2\pi /3$
- C$\pi /2$
- DZero
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$2\pi /3$
b
(b) ${A^2} = {a^2} = {a^2} + {a^2} + 2{a^2}\cos \theta$
(b) ${A^2} = {a^2} = {a^2} + {a^2} + 2{a^2}\cos \theta$
$\Rightarrow \cos \theta = - \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{{2\pi }}{3}$
