Question
Constants I Periodic Table
Suppose two linear waves of equal amplitude and
frequency have a phase difference o as they travel
in the same medium. They can be represented by
Di = A sin(kæ – wt)
D2 = A sin(kx – wt + 4).
Part A
Use the trigonometric identity sin O1 + sin 02 = 2 sin ; (01 + 02) cos; (01 – 02) to find the resultant wave.
Express your answer in terms of the variables A, k, x, w, t, and o.
