प्रश्न
When we clap our hands, the sound produced is best described by Here p denotes the change in pressure from the equilibrium value.
विकल्प
\[p = p_0 \sin\left( kx - \omega t \right)\]
\[p = p_0 \sin kx \cos \omega t\]
\[p = p_0 \cos kx \sin \omega t\]
\[p = \sum p_{0n} \sin \left( k_n x - \omega_n t \right)\]

उत्तर
\[p = \sum p_{0n} \sin \left( k_n x - \omega_n t \right)\]
When we clap, there is a change in pressure, which sets a disturbance and forms a wave. However, this variation is not uniform every time we clap (unlike in the case of a sound wave). Hence, we sum up all the disturbances.

The two sources of sound, S1 and S2, emitting waves of equal wavelength 20.0 cm, are placed with a separation of 20.0 cm between them. A detector can be moved on a line parallel to S1 S2 and at a distance of 20.0 cm from it. Initially, the detector is equidistant from the two sources. Assuming that the waves emitted by the sources are in detector should be shifted to detect a minimum of sound.
