A transverse wave is represented by `y=Asin(omegat-kx)`. For what value of the wavelength is the wave velocity equal to the maximum particle velocity?A. `(piA)/2`B. `piA`C. `2piA`D. A |
Answer» Correct Answer - C The given wave equation is,y=Asin`(omegat-kx)` Wave velocity,`v=omega/k`….(i) Particle velocity,`v_(p)=(dy)/(dt)=Aomegacos(omegat-kx)` Maximim particle velocity, `(v_(p))_(max)` `omega/k=Aomega` (Using (i) and (ii)) `1/k=Aorlamda/(2pi)=A`(`becausek=(2pi)/lamda`) `lamda=2piA` |
