12. Physics Sound waves can be modeled by equations of the
form y # 20 sin (3t " !). Determine what type of interference
results when sound waves modeled by the equations
y # 20 sin (3t " 90) and y # 20 sin (3t " 270) are combined.
(Hint: Refer to the application in Lesson 7-3.)
The interference is destructive. The waves cancel
each other completely.
