Two transverse sinusoidal waves combining in a string are described by the wave functions y1 = 0.02 sin(2πx+πt) and y2 = 0.02 sin(2πx-πt), where x and y are in meters, and t is in seconds. If after superposition, a standing wave of 3 loops is formed, then the length of the string is:
2 m
1.5 m
0.75 m
0.5 m
1 m
Resultant wave,
Comparing this with standard equation,
Also,
Number of loops,
Length of string =
Number of loops,
Length of string = 1.5 m
