Two identical sinusoidal waves are moving in the same direction along a stretched string and interfere with each other. The phase difference between them is $120^{\circ}$. The amplitudes of both the waves are the same. If the amplitude of the resultant wave due to interference is $2 \,mm$, the amplitude of each wave is:
