Question:

Two waves are described by the wave functions
y1(x, t) = 5.0 sin (2.0x ─ 10t)
And
y2(x, t) = 10 cos (2.0x ─ 10t)
Where y1, y2, and x are in meters and t is in seconds. Show that the wave resulting from their superposition is also sinusoidal. Determine the amplitude and phase of this sinusoidal wave.
