Two waves of same frequency ( n) are approaching each other with same velocity 12 m/s along the same linear path and interfere. The distance between two consecutive nodes is (a) 12 n (b) 12/n (c) 6 n (d) 6/n

Answer: (d). λ = v/n = 12/n. Consecutive nodes are (λ)/(2) = 6/n apart. So the answer is (d) 6/n.

Two waves of same frequency ( n) are approaching each other with same velocity $12\text{ m/s}$ along the same linear path and interfere. The distance between two consecutive nodes is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

$\lambda = \frac{v}{n} = \frac{12}{n}$ .
Consecutive nodes are $\frac{\lambda}{2} = \frac{6}{n}$ apart.
So the answer is (d) $\frac{6}{n}$ .
