Question 129: Waves

Question

Three harmonic waves having equal frequency
$$
u $$ and same intensity $${I_0}$$, have phase angles 0, $${\pi  \over 4}$$ and $$ - {\pi  \over 4}$$ respectively. When they are
superimposed the intensity of the resultant wave
is close to :

Accepted Answer

I
0
= CA

A
R
= A  + A$$\sqrt 2 $$ = A(1 + $$\sqrt 2 $$)
I
R
= C$$A_R^2$$
