The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to extract the periodic time and maximum velocity from the given wave equation. The wave equation is given as: \[ y = \frac{10}{\pi} \sin(2000 \pi t - \frac{\pi x}{17}) \] ### Step 1: Identify the Angular Frequency The angular frequency \( \omega \) can be identified from the wave equation. In this case, we have: \[ \omega = 2000 \pi \, \text{rad/s} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Periodic Time The periodic time \( T \) is related to the angular frequency \( \omega \) by the formula: \[ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} \] Substituting the value of \( \omega \): \[ T = \frac{2\pi}{2000 \pi} = \frac{2}{2000} = \frac{1}{1000} \, \text{s} \] ### Step 3: Identify the Amplitude The amplitude \( A \) of the wave is given by the coefficient of the sine function in the wave equation: \[ A = \frac{10}{\pi} \, \text{cm} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Maximum Velocity The maximum velocity \( v_{\text{max}} \) of the particles in the medium can be calculated using the formula: \[ v_{\text{max}} = A \cdot \omega \] Substituting the values of \( A \) and \( \omega \): \[ v_{\text{max}} = \left(\frac{10}{\pi}\right) \cdot (2000 \pi) = 10 \cdot 2000 = 20000 \, \text{cm/s} \] ### Final Answer The periodic time \( T \) and the maximum velocity \( v_{\text{max}} \) of the particles in the medium are: - Periodic Time \( T = \frac{1}{1000} \, \text{s} \) - Maximum Velocity \( v_{\text{max}} = 20000 \, \text{cm/s} \) ---
