Problem

Two coherent sound waves produce an interference pattern at a point such that the maximum observed intensity is 49 unit49\,\text{unit} and the minimum observed intensity is 9 unit9\,\text{unit}. (a) Determine the individual amplitudes of the two waves. (b) If the phase difference between the same two waves later becomes 120∘120^{\circ}, calculate the resultant amplitude at that point.
