Two sound waves have phase difference of `60^(@)`, then they will have the path difference of:

A

`2lamda`

B

`(lamda)/(2)`

C

`(lamda)/(6)`

D

`(lamda)/(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Phase difference `=(2pi)/(lamda)xx` path difference
path difference `Delta =(lamda)/(2pi)xxphi=(lamda)/(2pi)xx(pi)/(3)=(lamda)/(6)`

Two sound waves having a phase difference of 60^(@) have path difference of

When two sound waves with a phase difference of pi //2 , and each having amplitude A and frequency omega , are superimposed on each other, then the maximum amplitude and frequency of resultant wave is

Assertion: Two identical waves due to two coherent sources interfere at a point with a phase difference of (2pi)/3 , then the resultant intensity at this point is equal to the individual intensity of the sources. Reason: A phase difference of (2pi)/3 is equivalent to a path difference of lambda/3 .

Two monochromatic light waves of amplitude 3A and 2A interfering at a point have a phase difference of 60^(@) . The intensity at that point will be proportional to:

Assertion: Two equations of wave are y_(1)=A sin(omegat - kx) and y_(2) A sin(kx - omegat) . These two waves have a phase difference of pi . Reason: They are travelling in opposite directions.

Light waves from two coherent sources having intensities I and 2I cross each other at a point with a phase difference of 60^(@) . The intensity at the point will be

For minimum intensity the phase difference between the two waves is

At resonance in an LCR circuit the emf and current are (i) in phase . (ii) out of phase . (iii) having a phase difference of pi//2 . (iv) having a phase difference of pi //6 .
