Is their any relationship between wave speed and the maximum partcle speed for a wave travelling on a string? If so, what is it?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Wave speed, `v=(omega)/(k)`
and maximum particle speed,
`(v_(P))_(max) = omegaA`
From these two expressions, we can see that
`(v_(P))_(max) = (kA)V`
