1 . 8 Two waves on a string are given by the functions: y 1 ( x , t ) = 4 c o s

1.8 Two waves on a string are given by the functions:
y1(x,t)=4cos(20t-30x),(cm)
y2(x,t)=-4cos(20t+30x),(cm),
where x is in centimeters. The waves are said to interfere
constructively when their superposition |ys|=|y1+y2| is a
maximum, and they interfere destructively when |ys| is a
minimum.
(a) What are the directions of propagation of waves y1(x,t)
and y2(x,t)?
(b) At t=(50)s, what location x do the two waves
interfere constructively, and what is the corresponding
value of |ys|?
(c) At t=(50)s, what location x do the two waves
interfere destructively, and what is the corresponding
value of |ys|?
