Sound waves are passing through two routes—one in a straight path and the other along a semicircular path of radius $r$—and are again combined into one pipe and superposed as shown in the figure. If the velocity of sound waves in the pipe is $v$,then frequencies of resultant waves of maximum amplitude will be integral multiples of

Two waves have the same amplitude $A$ and the same frequency $\omega$. If the phase difference between them is $\pi / 2$,what are the resultant amplitude and the resultant frequency when they superimpose at a point?
