Waves

My name is: Your first name
is usually enough.
Sound wave is an example of which type of wave ?
Four sets of circular waves with four different wave sources interfere with each other. The maximum amplitude of first wave is 20 mm, that of second wave is 15 mm, that of third wave is 25 mm and that of fourth is 10 mm. What will be the amplitude of the largest possible wave due to interference and what will be the amplitude of the smallest possible wave ?
Define Refraction Index
A wave front XY is traveling through medium M1. It reaches refracting surface AB of medium M2 at an angle. Point X on the straight wavefront XY is the first to reach the surface AB. At that moment point Y is 10 mm away from its predicted point of impact on surface AB. When point Y of the straight wavefrontXY reaches surface AB, secondary wavefront due to point X has travelled inside medium M2 and has reached point X2. The distance between point X and X2 is 8 mm. Based on this observation please indicate the correct answer from the following
Based on the observations listed in above question, please indicate the correct answer
When a sound system with five speakers are installed in a room, three speakers are installed at the front of the room (left corner, middle and right corner resp.), two at the back of the room (left corner and right corner respectively). The speakers are adjusted such a way that a person seating towards the back of the room, in a regular seating location gets to hear the best quality of sound produced from the sound system. Whereas the locations away from the normal seating positions do not receive the best quality of sound. Please indicate which of the following wave related phenomenon is the reason for the above observation ?
Two waves of the same frequency are traveling in the same direction. Wave 1 is traveling at a speed greater than Wave 2. Which of the following is true ?
Which of the following is the correct answer ?
