MCQ
Two sound waves of intensity $2 \,W / m ^2$ and $3 \,W / m ^2$ meet at a point to produce a resultant intensity $5 \,W / m ^2$. The phase difference between two waves is ......
  • A
    $\pi$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • D
    $0$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{\pi}{2}$
c
(c)

$I=I_1+I_2+2 \sqrt{T_1} \sqrt{T_2} \cos \phi$

$5=3+2+2 \sqrt{6} \cos \phi$

$\therefore \cos \phi=0$

$\text { or } \phi=\frac{\pi}{2}$
