The maximum particle velocity is 3 times...

The maximum particle velocity is 3 times the wave velocity of a progressive wave. If the amplitude of the particle is 'A', then the phase difference between the two particles separation by a dsitance of 'x' is

A

`(x)/(A)`

B

`(3A)/(x)`

C

`(3x pi)/(A)`

D

`(3x)/(A)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`v_(P) = 3v, delta = ?`
`A omega = 3 n lamda`
`A xx 2pi n = 3n lamda`
`A xx (2pi)/(lamda) = 3`
`A " " k = 3 " " :. k = (3)/(A)`
`delta = (2pi)/(lamda) x = kx = (3)/(A)x`
