Three waves from three coherent sources meet at the same point. The Amplitude of each wave is A0. Intensity corresponding to A0 is I0. At a point, the phase difference between the first wave and the second wave is 60∘and the path difference between the first wave and the third wave is λ3. The first wave lags behind in phase angle from the second and the third wave. The resultant intensity at this point is
Why this question? Key note: For vector addition of more than two vectors, add two vectors at a time and then add its resultant to the third vector. |
