Analyze the starting and instantaneous phases of Wave A and Wave B, calculate the phase differences between the two waves at different time intervals, and determine if the phase differences are consistent.
E N D
The following figure shows wave A (solid line), and wave B (dotted line).
What is the starting phase of wave A? • What is the starting phase of wave B? • es? • What is the starting phase difference (A-B) between the two wav • What is the instantaneous phase of wave A at time 0.25 s? • What is the instantaneous phase of wave B at time 0.25 s? • What is the instantaneous phase difference(A-B) between the two waves at time 0.25 s? • What is the instantaneous phase difference(A-B) between the two waves at time 0.5 s? • Are the two phase differences (Questions 6 and 7) the same? If not, explain why you obtained different values.
