A wave of amplitude 0.4 m interferes with a second wave of amplitude 0.23 m traveling in the same direction. What is the largest resultant amplitude that can occur? Answer in units of m

Resultant amplitude is 0.53 m.

Explanation:

Amplitude is defined as the maximum displacement of wave particles from their respective mean positions.

The resulting amplitude of any two waves is given by the relation :

A =

Here, A is resultant amplitude, A₁ and A₂ are the amplitudes of two waves respectively and x is the difference in phase angle of the two waves.

According to the problem, A₁ is 0.4 m , A₂ is 0.23 m and x is zero. So, the above equation becomes,

A =

A =

A = 0.63 m

d. learned preferences i believe is your answer

here we know that ball will drop down by total distance 3.2 m

so here we know that

now using kinematics

now in the same time it will cover horizontal distance of 0.75 m

so speed of the ball will be
