Assertion: In a small segment of string carrying sinusoidal wave, total energy is conserved.
Reason: Every small part moves in SHM and total energy of SHM is conserved.

A

Statement I is true, statement II is true and statement II is the correct explaination for statement I.

B

Statement I is true, statement II is true and statement II is NOT the correct explaination for statement I.

C

Statement I is true, statement II is false.

D

Statement I is false, statement II is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Every small segament is acted upon by forces from both sides of it hence enrgy is not conserved, rather it is transmitted by the element.
