उत्तर
Given, wave functions are y = 2 cos 2π (10t – 0.0080x + 3.5)
= 2 cos(20πt – 0.016πx + 7π)
Now, the standard equation of a travelling wave can be written as y = a cos(ωt – kx + `phi`)
On comparing with the above equation, we get
a = 2 cm
ω = 20π rad/s
k = 0.016π
Path difference = 4 cm
Phase difference Δ`phi = (2π)/λ` × Path difference
∴ Δ`phi` = 0.016π × 4 × 100 ......`(∵ (2π)/λ = k)`
= 6.4π rad
