$A$ string of length $0.5 \text{ m}$ and mass $10^{-3} \text{ kg}$ is tightly clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is $0.8 \text{ N}$. Identical wave pulses are produced at one end at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$. What is the minimum value of $\Delta t$ which allows constructive interference between successive pulses (in $\text{ s}$)?

What is a refracted wave? $OR$ What is a stationary wave?

The displacement of a string is given by,
