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) ${A^2} = {a^2} = {a^2} + {a^2} + 2{a^2}\cos \theta$
$\Rightarrow \cos \theta = - \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{{2\pi }}{3}$

The diameter of a cylinder is measured using a vernier callipers with no zero error. It is found that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $5.10 \ cm$ and $5.15 \ cm$ of the main scale. The vernier scale has $50$ division equivalent to $2.45 \ cm$. The $24^{\text {th }}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The diameter of the cylinder is :
→A body is at rest at $x=0$. At $t=0$, it starts moving in the positive $x-$ direction with a constant acceleration. At the same instant another body passes through $x=0$ moving in the positive $x$ direction with a constant speed. The position of the first body is given by $x_{1} (t)$ after time $t$ and that of the second body by $x_{2}(t)$ after the same time interval. Which of the following graphs correctly describe $\left(x_{1}-x_{2}\right)$ as a function of time $t$?

A thermally insulated vessel contains some water at $0^0C$. The vessel is connected to a vacuum pump to pump out water vapour. This results in some water getting frozen. It is given Latent heat of vaporization of water at $0^o C =21 × 10^5 J/kg$ and latent heat of freezing of water $= 3.36 × 10^5 J/kg$. The maximum percentage amount of water that will be solidified in this manner will be ...... $\%$
