Two waves, travelling along the same direction, are given by
y1(x, t) = asin (w1t − k1x)
and y2 (x, t) = asin (w2t − k2x)
Suppose that the values of w1 and k1 are respectively slightly greater than w2 and
k2 . i) Obtain an expression for the resultant wave due to their superposition. ii)
Explain the formation of wave packet
