The amplitude of the wave resulting from the superposition of $3$ waves given by $x_1 = A \cos \omega t$,$x_2 = 2 A \sin \omega t$ and $x_3 = \sqrt{2} A \cos (\omega t + \frac{\pi}{4})$ is

The sources of sound $A$ and $B$ produce a wave of $350 Hz$ in the same phase. $A$ particle $P$ is vibrating under the influence of these two waves. If the amplitudes at $P$ produced by the two waves are $0.3 mm$ and $0.4 mm$,the resultant amplitude of the point $P$ will be,when $AP-BP=25 cm$ and the velocity of sound is $350 m s^{-1}$. (in $mm$)

Two waves $Y_1 = A_1 \sin(\omega t - \beta_1)$ and $Y_2 = A_2 \sin(\omega t - \beta_2)$ superimpose to form a resultant wave whose amplitude is

Two waves are propagating along a taut string that coincides with the $x$-axis. The first wave has the wave function $y_1 = A \cos[k(x - vt)]$ and the second has the wave function $y_2 = A \cos[k(x + vt) + \phi]$.
