The correct Answer is:
To determine the resultant amplitude after the superposition of the given four waves using a phasor diagram, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Waves We have the following four waves: 1. \( y_1 = 15 \sin(\omega t) \) mm 2. \( y_2 = 9 \sin(\omega t - \frac{\pi}{2}) \) mm 3. \( y_3 = 7 \sin(\omega t + \frac{\pi}{2}) \) mm 4. \( y_4 = 13 \sin(\omega t) \) mm ### Step 2: Represent Each Wave as a Phasor - **Wave 1 (\(y_1\))**: This wave has an amplitude of 15 mm and is along the positive y-axis. - **Wave 2 (\(y_2\))**: This wave has an amplitude of 9 mm and is at a phase of \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) (downward direction). - **Wave 3 (\(y_3\))**: This wave has an amplitude of 7 mm and is at a phase of \(+\frac{\pi}{2}\) (upward direction). - **Wave 4 (\(y_4\))**: This wave has an amplitude of 13 mm and is in phase with \(y_1\) (along the positive y-axis). ### Step 3: Draw the Phasor Diagram 1. Draw the phasor for \(y_1\) (15 mm) vertically upwards. 2. Draw the phasor for \(y_2\) (9 mm) vertically downwards. 3. Draw the phasor for \(y_3\) (7 mm) vertically upwards. 4. Draw the phasor for \(y_4\) (13 mm) vertically upwards. ### Step 4: Combine the Phasors - Combine \(y_1\) and \(y_4\): - \(y_1 + y_4 = 15 + 13 = 28\) mm (upward). - Combine \(y_2\) and \(y_3\): - \(y_2 + y_3 = -9 + 7 = -2\) mm (downward). ### Step 5: Resultant Amplitude Calculation Now we have two resultant phasors: - Upward phasor: 28 mm - Downward phasor: 2 mm Now, we can find the resultant amplitude: - The net upward phasor is \(28 - 2 = 26\) mm. ### Step 6: Final Result The resultant amplitude after the superposition of the given four waves is: \[ A_{\text{resultant}} = 26 \text{ mm} \]

When two coherent sources interact with each other, there will be production of alternate bright and dark fringes on the screen . Young's double-slit experiment domonstrates the idea of making two coherent sources. For better visibility, one has to choose proper amplitude for the sources.
