The equuation of a wave is given by
`y=0.5 sin (100 t+25x)`
The ratio of maximum particle velolcity to wave velocity is:

A

12.5

B

25

C

4

D

`1//8`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
`V_(p)(max)=((dy)/(dt))_(max)=50 units`
`V_(omega)=(omega)/(k)=(100)/(25)=4 units`
`(V_(p)(max))/(V_(omega))=12.5`
