If $y_1 = 5 \text{ mm} \sin(\pi t)$ is the equation of oscillation of source $S_1$ and $y_2 = 5 \text{ mm} \sin(\pi t + \pi/6)$ is that of $S_2$,and it takes $1 \text{ s}$ and $0.5 \text{ s}$ for the transverse waves to reach point $A$ from sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ respectively,then the resulting amplitude at point $A$ is .... $\text{mm}$.

  • A
    $5\sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3}}$
  • B
    $5\sqrt{3}/2$
  • C
