The equations of two simple harmonic waves are given by $Y_1 = 2 \sin 8 \pi \left(\frac{t}{0.2} - \frac{x}{2}\right) \text{ m}$ and $Y_2 = 4 \sin 8 \pi \left(\frac{t}{0.16} - \frac{x}{1.6}\right) \text{ m}$. Then both waves have:

The path difference between the two waves $y_1 = a_1 \sin \left( \omega t - \frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} \right)$ and $y_2 = a_2 \cos \left( \omega t - \frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} + \phi \right)$ is

The equation of a transverse wave is given by $y=0.05 \sin \pi(2 t-0.02 x)$,where $x, y$ are in metre and $t$ is in second. The minimum distance of separation between two particles which are in phase and the wave velocity are respectively

The amplitude of a wave disturbance propagating in the positive $X-$ direction is given by $y = 1/(1 + x^2)$ at time $t = 0$ and by $y = 1/[1 + (x - 1)^2]$ at $t = 2$ seconds,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The shape of the wave disturbance does not change during the propagation. The velocity of the wave is ..... $ms^{-1}$.
