To see how two traveling waves of nearly the same frequency can create beats and to interpret the superposition as a "walking" wave, consider two similar traveling transverse waves, which might be traveling for example along a string:
y1(x,t) = Asin(k1 x - w1 t) and y2(x,t) = Asin(k2 x - w2 t). They are similar because we assume that k1 and k2 are nearly equal and also that w1 and w2 are nearly equal.
a). Find C, y_envelope (x,t), and y_carrier (x,t). Express your answer in terms of A, k1, k2, x, t, w1 and w2. Separate the three terms with commas. Recall that y_envelope (the second term) varies slowly whereas y_(rm carrier) (the third term) varies quickly. Both y_envelope and y_carrier should be trigonometric functions of unit amplitude.
b). The envelope function can be written simply in terms of delta_k = k_1 - k_2 and delta_w= w1 - w2. If you do so, what is v_group, the velocity of propagation of the envelope? Express your result in terms of delta_k and delta_omega.

What is the displacement of the string as a function of x
: At which three points x_1, x_2, and x_3 closest to x=0 but with x>0 will the displacement of the string y(x,t) be zero for all times? These are the first three nodal points. Express the first three nonzero nodal points in terms of the wavelength l..
