First off:
Sorry. I'm a Norwegian girl, so my English may not be of very good quality.
Now that's said...
I have this problem to solve.
Only thing is - I don't have a clue how!
I'm no good at physics, but unfortunately I have to have this class.
Anyway.
My problem is this:
Task 1a)
Two harmonic waves are mutually coherent.
One wave has an intensity of 4 unit^2,
the other wave has the intensity of 9 unit ^2,
their superposition wave will have an amplitude of
Task 1b)
Two waves are mutually incoherent.
One wave has an amplitude of 3 unit,
the other wave has an amplitude of 4 unit.
The intensity for the superposed wave should be?
How do I calculate this?
What formula am I suppose to use?
And if you only wan't to give me the formula,
can you please explain what the different letters, symbols and stuff means (so that I can solve it myself, if you don't want to give me the direct answer?)
