Question
According to the principle of superposition, the wave
resulting from the composition of waves D1, D2 and
D3 (all transverse) and propagating in a string of
length L, fixed at both ends, will have the following
characteristics:
D:(x,t) = A sen (kx – wt – 2n)
|
D2(x,t) = A cos (kx – wt – T/2)
D3(X,t) = 2A sen (kx + wt + 4T)
select the correct alternative:
1. A stationary wave with four times the amplitude of
D1
2. A stationary wave with the same amplitude as D1
3. A stationary wave with twice the amplitude of D1
4. A wave with the same velocity and initial phase as
D1, but with opposite propagation direction and half
its amplitude
5. A wave with the same velocity and initial phase as
D1, but with opposite propagation direction and four
times its amplitude
6. A wave with the same propagation direction,
velocity, and initial phase as D1, but with four times
its amplitude
7. A wave with the same propagation direction,
velocity, and initial phase as D1, but with twice the
amplitude
8. A wave with the same speed and initial phase as
D1, but with opposite propagation direction and
twice the amplitude
9. A wave with the same amplitude, velocity, and
initial phase as D1, but with opposite propagation
direction
10. A wave with the same propagation direction,
velocity, and initial phase as D1, but with half its
amplitude
