MCQ
If two waves of same frequency and same amplitude respectively, on superimposition produced a resultant disturbance of the same amplitude, the waves differ in phase by
  • A
    $\pi$
  • $2 \pi / 3$
  • C
    $\pi / 2$
  • D
    Zero

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2 \pi / 3$
(b) $A^2=a^2=a^2+a^2+2 a^2 \cos \theta \Rightarrow \cos \theta=-\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \theta=\frac{2 \pi}{3}$
