Two waves are approaching each other with a velocity of `20m//s` and frequency `n`. The distance between two consecutive nudes is

A

`(20)/(n)`

B

`(10)/(n)`

C

`(5)/(n)`

D

`(n)/(10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Distance between the consecutive node = `lambda/(2)`
`lambda = (v)/(n) = (20)/(n)`
implies `(lambda)/(2) = (10)/(n)`
