Two waves have intensities $x$ and $y$. If the time difference between them is $3T/2$,what is the resultant intensity?

  • A
    $(\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{y})^2$
  • B
    $(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{y} + \sqrt{xy})$
  • C
    $x + y + 2\sqrt{xy}$
  • D
    $\frac{x + y}{2\sqrt{xy}}$

Sound waves are passing through two routes—one in a straight path and the other along a semicircular path of radius $r$—and are again combined into one pipe and superposed as shown in the figure. If the velocity of sound waves in the pipe is $v$, then frequencies of resultant waves of maximum amplitude will be integral multiples of

The resultant amplitude of waves ${y_1} = a \sin \left( \omega t + \frac{\pi}{3} \right)$ and ${y_2} = a \sin \omega t$ is:
