Multiple Choice
Two speakers, S1 and S2, operating in phase in the same medium produce the circular wave patterns shown in the diagram above
At which two points is constructive interference occurring?
A and B
A and D
B and C
B and D
3.
Multiple Choice
The diagram above shows two pulses of equal amplitude, A, approaching point P along a uniform string.
When the two pulses meet at P, the vertical displacement of the string at P will be
A
2A
0
A/2
4.
Multiple Choice
The diagram above shows two pulses approaching each other from opposite directions in the same medium. Pulse A has an amplitude of 0.20 meter and pulse B has an amplitude of 0.10 meter.
After the pulses have passed through each other, what will be the amplitude of each of the two pulses?
A = 0.10 m; B = 0.20 m
A = 0.20 m; B = 0.10 m
A = 0.30 m; B = 0.30 m
A = 0.15 m; B = 0.15 m
