Consider two waves, which are given by $y_1(x, t)=A \sin (k x-\omega t)$ and $y_2(x, t)=\sqrt{3} A \cos (k x-\omega t)$, where $k$ is the wave number and $\omega$ is the angular frequency. The amplitude of the resultant waveform obtained by the superposition of the two waves is $A_s$ and its phase difference with $y_1$ is $\phi_s$. What are $A_s$ and $\phi_s$ ?
