Two waves are said to be coherent, if they have:
Same phase but different amplitude
Same frequency but different amplitude
Same frequency, phase and amplitude
Different frequency, phase and amplitude

The wave described by
y = 0.25 sin (10πx - 2πt),
where x and y are in metre and t in second, is a wave travelling with :
-ve x direction with frequency 1 Hz
+ve x direction with frequency π Hz and wavelength λ = 0.2 m
+ve x direction with frequency 1 Hz and wavelength λ = 0.2m
-ve x direction with amplitude 0.25m and wavelength λ = 0.2m.
A wave of amplitude a = 0.2m, velocity v= 360 m/s and wavelength 60 m is travelling along positive x axis, then the correct expression for the wave is:
Equations of two progressive waves are given by y1 = a sin (ωt + ø2). If amplitude and time period of resultant wave are same as that of both the waves, then (ø1 - ø2) is:
