Pulse A is moving to the left with amplitude of +7 cm and pulse B is moving to the right with an amplitude of -10 cm. The pulses meet at point C. (Assume that all energy is conserved). 2.1 Whatis a pulse? 2.2 State the principle of superposition of waves. 2.3. Draw a labelled diagram to show the pulses at point C. 2.4 What type of interference takes place at point C? 2.5 Calculate the resultant amplitude at the meeting point (point C). 2.6 What is the amplitude and direction of pulse A after passing point C?
