Two sinusoidal waves given below are superposed

$y_1=A \sin \left(k x-\omega t+\frac{\pi}{6}\right), \quad y_2=A \sin \left(k x-\omega t-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)$

The equation of resultant wave is

  • A$y=\frac{A}{\sqrt{3}} \sin (k x-\omega t)$
  • B$y=A \sqrt{3} \sin (k x-\omega t)$
  • C$y=A \sqrt{3} \sin \left(k x-\omega t-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$
  • D$y=\frac{A}{\sqrt{3}} \sin \left(k x-\omega t-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$

    Assume that the displacement$(s)$ of air is proportional to the pressure difference $(\Delta p)$ created by a sound wave. Displacement$(s)$ further depends on the speed of sound $(v),$ density of air $(\rho)$ and the frequency $(f)$ If $\Delta p \approx 10\, Pa , v  \approx 300\, m / s , p  \approx 1\, kg / m ^{3}$ and $f \approx  1000 \,Hz$, then $s$ will be the order of
