Question
At a point P in space, the disturbance created by a travelling wave which is not sinusoidal is +10 cm, while the disturbance created by another sinusoidal wave at the the same point in space is +5 cm. What is the net displacement at the point P ?

Solution
The correct option is B 15 cm
The principle of superposition is independent of the nature or the function of the wave. So, the net disturbance created here is 15 cm.
