$A$ wave $y = a \cos(kx - \omega t)$ superposes on another wave to form a stationary wave having a node at $x = 0$. What is the equation of the other wave?

Difficult
View Solution

The following equations represent progressive transverse waves:
$Z_1 = A \cos(\omega t - kx)$,
$Z_2 = A \cos(\omega t + kx)$,
$Z_3 = A \cos(\omega t + ky)$,
$Z_4 = A \cos(2\omega t - 2ky)$.
$A$ stationary wave will be formed by superposing:

$A$ wave represented by the equation $y = a \cos (kx - \omega t)$ is superposed with another wave to form a stationary wave such that the point $x = 0$ is a node. The equation for the other wave is:
