The amplitude and phase of a wave that is formed by the superposition of two harmonic travelling waves,$y_1(x, t) = 4 \sin(kx - \omega t)$ and $y_2(x, t) = 2 \sin(kx - \omega t + \frac{2\pi}{3})$,are (Take the angular frequency of initial waves same as $\omega$):

An observer receives waves directly from a source of sound distant $120\,m$ in a big hall. He also receives waves reflected from the mid-point of a $25\,m$ high ceiling. The wavelength of sound for constructive interference to take place between the two waves must be:

Three harmonic waves having equal frequency $v$ and same intensity $I_{0}$,have phase angles $0, \frac{\pi}{4}$ and $-\frac{\pi}{4}$ respectively. When they are superimposed,the intensity of the resultant wave is close to

Two sound waves each of wavelength $\lambda$ and same amplitude $A$ interfere at point $Q$. If the path difference is $\frac{\lambda}{4}$, the amplitude of the resultant wave at point $Q$ is $[\sin \frac{\pi}{2} = 1, \cos \frac{\pi}{2} = 0]$

If two waves of the same frequency and amplitude on superposition produce a resultant disturbance of the same amplitude,the waves differ in phase by
