Two waves arrive at the same place at the same time exactly in step with each other. Each wave has an amplitude of 2.5 m. The resulting wave has an amplitude of

5m

Explanation:

Whenever Two or more than two waves get to the same point/place, and they arrive at the same time, then there will be "superimposition" onto one another. Then there would be corresponding of each disturbance to a Amplitude or force, and since these disturbance maintain same line, "THEN THE RESULTING WAVE WILL BE THE ADDITION OF THE AMPLITUDE"

Superposition can be explained as the action that takes place as a result of two waves occupying same point.

To find the waves at this point, then " THE AMPLITUDE WILL BE ADDED TOGETHER"

Given:

Amplitude of first wave= 2.5m

Amplitude of second wave= 2.5m

The resulting wave will have an amplitude of(2.5m + 2.5m)=5.0m

Hence, The resulting wave has an amplitude of 5.0m
