CBSEENPH11018858

Two waves of amplitude a and b are superposed with phase difference ϕ. What is the amplitude of resultant wave?

Solution
The amplitude of resultant wave is given by, 
space space square root of straight a squared plus straight b squared plus 2 abcosϕ end root 
where, 
a and b are amplitudes of two waves, and 
straight phi spaceis the phase differnce.
