The equation of a simple harmonic progressive wave is given by $y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{a}} \sin \omega t \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{b}} \cos \omega t$. The resultant amplitude of the wave is:

The amplitude of a wave,represented by the displacement equation $y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{a}} \sin \omega t \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{b}} \cos \omega t$,will be:

Two waves $y_1 = A_1 \sin(\omega t - \beta_1)$ and $y_2 = A_2 \sin(\omega t - \beta_2)$ superimpose to form a resultant wave whose amplitude is:

The equations of two waves are given by
$y_{1}=5 \sin 2 \pi(x-v t) \, cm$
$y_{2}=3 \sin 2 \pi(x-v t+1.5) \, cm$
These waves are simultaneously passing through a string. The amplitude of the resulting wave is.........$cm$.
