Q16 of 97 Page 322

Two waves of equal amplitude A, and equal frequency travel in the same direction in a medium. The amplitude of the resultant wave is

The amplitude of the resultant wave will depend primarily upon the phase difference of the two


waves at the moments of superimposition. So, the resultant lies between maximum amplitude


and minimum resultant amplitude.
