The equation of a progressive wave is y ...

The equation of a progressive wave is `y =4 sin (4 pi t-0.04 x+pi/3)` where x is in metre and t is in second. The velocity of the wave is

A

`100 pi ms^(-1)`

B

`50 pi ms^(-1)`

C

`25 pi ms^(-1)`

D

`pi ms^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The equation of the progresive wave is given as `y=4 sin (4 pi t-0.04+pi//3)`.
The velocity of the wave would be equal to
`omega/k=(4pi)/0.04=100 pi ms^(-1)`
