Assertion It is not possible to have interference between the waves produced by two violins.
Reason For interference of two waves, the phase difference between the waves must remain constant. [AIIMS 2012]
(a) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
(b) Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
(d) Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
Solution
Since, the initial phase difference between the two waves coming from different violins changes, therefore the waves produced by two different violins does not interfere. Two waves interfere only when the phase difference between them remain constant throughout.
