Consider the snapshot of a wave traveling in positive x–direction

A

The particle A is moving in –ve y–direction and particle B is moving in +y–direction

B

The particle B is moving in –ve y–direction and particle A is moving in +y–direction

C

Both are moving in the +ve y–direction

D

Both are moving in the –ve y–direction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`V_("Particle")= -("slope")(v_("wave"))`
At A : slope ` to +ve " so " v_(p) " is " -ve.`
At B : slope ` to -ve " so " v_(p) " is " +ve` .
`" " `OR
