Two waves are propagating to point $P$ along a straight line,produced by two sources $A$ and $B$ of simple harmonic motion and equal frequency. The amplitude of every wave at $P$ is $a$. The phase of $A$ is ahead by $\frac{\pi}{3}$ compared to $B$,and the distance $AP$ is greater than $BP$ by $50 \ cm$. If the wavelength is $1 \ m$,what will be the resultant amplitude at point $P$?

If two waves represented by $y_1 = 4 \sin \omega t$ and $y_2 = 3 \sin (\omega t + \frac{\pi}{3})$ interfere at a point,then the amplitude of the resulting wave will be about:
