Constructive and Destructive Interference
First pulse has wavelength 50 and amplitude 1.0. Second pulse has wavelength to 50 and the amplitude to 1.0. Move the wave and describe why they behave as they do.
Two waves when present in a medium simultaneously, make the particles of the medium to oscillate with the resultant wave displacement. This is called the principle of superposition.
If the frequency of the two is same and the phase difference at a point is same, the waves are called coherent and results in a constant amplitude at a point ...
