To find the amplitude of the resulting wave from two superimposed waves with given amplitudes and phase difference, we can follow these steps:
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Identify the Given Values**:
- Amplitude of the first wave, \( A_1 = A \)
- Amplitude of the second wave, \( A_2 = 2A \)
- Phase difference, \( \phi = \frac{\pi}{3} \) radians (which is equivalent to 60 degrees).
