AIPMT PRELIMS 2001 Physics Superposition of Waves MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Hard-Class 11
Two waves having equation x₁ = a sin(ωt + ϕ₁) x₂ = a sin(ωt + ϕ₂) If in the resultant wave the frequency and amplitude remains equals to amplitude of superimposing waves. Then phase diff. between them : -
A
π/6
B
2π/3
C
π/4
D
π/3
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
For the resultant amplitude to be equal to the amplitude of individual waves, the phase difference must be π/3.
