What is the minimum distance between any two particles of a medium which always have the same speed when a sinusoidal wave travels through the medium ? |
|
Answer» When a sinusoidal wave travels through a medium the minimum distance between any two particles of the medium which always have the same speed is \(\cfrac{\lambda}{2}\). Such particles are opposite in phase, i.e., their instantaneous velocities are opposite in direction. [Note : The minimum distance between any two particles which have the same velocity is λ] |
