Question

According to the superposition principle, the wave resulting from the composition of waves d1, d2 and d3 below (all transverse) and which propagate on a string of length L, fixed at both ends, will have the following characteristics:

( )A standing wave with four times the amplitude of D1.
( )A wave with the same amplitude, velocity and initial phase as D1, but with the opposite direction of propagation.
( )A standing wave with twice the amplitude of D1.
( )A wave with the same propagation direction, velocity and initial phase as D1 , but with twice its amplitude.
( )A wave with the same speed and initial phase as D1 , but with the opposite direction of propagation and twice its amplitude.
( )A wave with the same speed and initial phase as D1 , but with the opposite direction of propagation and half its amplitude.
( )A wave with the same speed and initial phase as D1, but with the opposite direction of propagation and four times its amplitude.
( )A wave with the same propagation direction, velocity and initial phase as D1, but with half its amplitude.
( )A wave with the same propagation direction, velocity and initial phase as D1, but with four times its amplitude.
( )A standing wave with the same amplitude as D1.

D:(x,t) = A sen (kx – wt – 2n)
D:(x,t) = A cos (kx – wt – T/2)
D:(x,t) = 2A sen (kx + wt + 47t)
