The displacement of two sinusoidal waves is given by the equations:
$y_1 = 8 \sin(20x - 30t)$
$y_2 = 8 \sin(25x - 40t)$
Then the phase difference between the waves at time $t = 2 \ s$ and distance $x = 5 \ cm$ will be:
$y_1 = 8 \sin(20x - 30t)$
$y_2 = 8 \sin(25x - 40t)$
Then the phase difference between the waves at time $t = 2 \ s$ and distance $x = 5 \ cm$ will be:
- A$2 \ \text{radian}$
- B$3 \ \text{radian}$
- C$4 \ \text{radian}$
- D$5 \ \text{radian}$
