Two waves passing through a region are represented by `y=(1.0cm) sin [(3.14 cm^(-1))x - (157s^(-1) x - (157s^(-1))t]`
and `y = (1.5 cm) sin [(1.57 cm^(-1))x- (314 s^(-1))t].` Find the displacement of the particle at x = 4.5 cm at time t = 5.0 ms.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
Find `y_(1)` and `y_(2)` at given values of x and t and then
simply add them to get net value of y.
