प्रश्न

Three sources of sound S1, S2 and S3 of equal intensity are placed in a straight line with S1S2 = S2S3. At a point P, far away from the sources, the wave coming from S2 is 120° ahead in phase of that from S1. Also, the wave coming from S3 is 120° ahead of that from S2. What would be the resultant intensity of sound at P?

उत्तर

Given:
All the three sources of sound, namely, S1, S2 and S3 emit equal intensity of sound waves.
Therefore, all three sources have equal amplitudes.
∴ A1 = A2 = A3
Now, by vector method, the resultant of the amplitudes is 0.
So, the resultant intensity at P is zero.
