Ans.

(i) [A],[C]

(ii) [B],[D]

(iii) [B],[C]

(iv) [A],[D]

Sol.

y 1 = A sin (kx – ω t)

y 2 = A sin (kx + ω t)

y = y 1 + y 2 = 2A sin kx cos ω t

y 1 = A sin (kx – ω t)

y 2 = –A sin (kx + ω t)

y = y 1 + y 2 = 2A cos kx sin ω t

y 1 = A cos (kx – ω t)

y 2 = A cos (kx + ω t)

y = y 1 + y 2 = 2A cos kx cos ω t

y 1 = A cos (kx – ω t)

y 2 = –A cos (kx + ω t)

y = y 1 + y 2 = 2A sin kx sin ω t

x = 0, rigid support i.e., nodes is

At nodes y = 0. This is satisfied by equations –

y = 2 A sin kx cos ω t

and y = 2 A sin kx sin ω t

x = 0, flexible support i.e., antinodes

At antinodes y is maximum. This is satisfied by equations –

y = 2A cos kx sin ω t

and y = 2A cos kx cos ω t.
