    Zero
  • B
    Purely kinetic
  • C
    Purely potential
  • D

Two pulses travel in mutually opposite directions in a string with a speed of $2.5 \ cm/s$ as shown in the figure. Initially,the pulses are $10 \ cm$ apart. What will be the state of the string after two seconds?

Two sources of sound $A$ and $B$ produce waves of $350 Hz$,and they vibrate in the same phase. $A$ particle $P$ is vibrating under the influence of these two waves. If the amplitudes at point $P$ produced by the two waves are $0.3 mm$ and $0.4 mm$,what will be the resultant amplitude of the point $P$ when $AP - BP = 25 cm$ and the velocity of sound is $350 m/s$?
