Assertion: Two equations of wave are `y_(1)=A sin(omegat - kx) and y_(2) A sin(kx - omegat)`. These two waves have a phase difference of `pi`.
Reason: They are travelling in opposite directions.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct expanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not correct expanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
If both waves `omegat and kx` are opposite signs, then both are travelling in positive directions.
