A progressive wave is represented by y = 5 `sin(100pit - 2pix)` where x and y are in m and t is in s. The maximum particle velocity is

A

28 cm/s

B

32 cm/s

C

49 cm/s

D

112 cm/s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`y = 7 sin (4t - 0.02 s)`
`V_("max") = A omega`
`= 7 xx 4 = 28 cm//s`
