If the phase difference between the two ...

If the phase difference between the two wave is `2 pi` during superposition, then the resultant amplitude is

A

Maximum

B

Minimum

C

Maximum or minimum

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

If `Deltaphi=2pi`, constructive interference
hence, resultant amplitude will be maximum.
