2008 · Q162

NEETPhysicsWavesMCQ+4 / −1
Two periodic waves of intensities III1 and III2 pass through a region at the same time in the same direction. The sum of the maximum and minimum intensities is
  1. A
    (I1−I2)2{\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} - \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2}(I1​​−I2​​)2
  2. B
    2(I1+I2)2\left( {{I_1} + {I_2}} \right)2(I1​+I2​)
  3. C
    I1+I2{{I_1} + {I_2}}I1​+I2​
  4. D
    (I1+I2)2{\left( {\sqrt {{I_1}} + \sqrt {{I_2}} } \right)^2}(I1​​+I2​​)2

Correct answer: B

Other factors such as ω\omega ω and v remaining the same, I = A2 constant K, or A = IK\sqrt {{I \over K}} KI​​

On superposition

Amax⁡=A1+A2{A_{\max }} = {A_1} + {A_2}Amax​=A1​+A2​ and Amin⁡=A1−A2{A_{\min }} = {A_1} - {A_2}Amin​=A1​−A2​

∴Amax⁡2=A12+A22+2A1A2 \therefore A_{\max }^2 = A_1^2 + A_2^2 + 2{A_1}{A_2}∴Amax2​=A12​+A22​+2A1​A2​

⇒Imax⁡K=I1K+I2K+2I1I2K \Rightarrow {{{I_{\max }}} \over K} = {{{I_1}} \over K} + {{{I_2}} \over K} + {{2\sqrt {{I_1}{I_2}} } \over K}⇒KImax​​=KI1​​+KI2​​+K2I1​I2​​​

Amin⁡2=A12+A22−2A1A2A_{\min }^2 = A_1^2 + A_2^2 - 2{A_1}{A_2}Amin2​=A12​+A22​−2A1​A2​

⇒Imin⁡K=I1K+I2K−2I1I2K \Rightarrow {{{I_{\min }}} \over K} = {{{I_1}} \over K} + {{{I_2}} \over K} - {{2\sqrt {{I_1}{I_2}} } \over K}⇒KImin​​=KI1​​+KI2​​−K2I1​I2​​​

∴Imax⁡+Imin⁡=2I1+2I2 \therefore {I_{\max }} + {I_{\min }} = 2{I_1} + 2{I_2}∴Imax​+Imin​=2I1​+2I2​
