Wave pulse on a string shown in figure i...

Wave pulse on a string shown in figure is moving to the right without changing shape. Cosider two particle at positions `x_(1)=1.5 m and x_(2)=2.5 m`. Their transverse velocities at the moment shown in figure are along direction

A

positive `y-`axis and positive `y-`axis respectively

B

negative `y-`axis and positive `y-`axis respectively

C

positive `y-`axis and negative `y-`axis respectively

D

negative `y-`axis and negative `y-`axis respectively

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


Dotted shaps shows pulse position after a short time interval. Direction of the velocities are decided according to according to direction of displacment of the particles.
at `x = 1.5` stope is `+ve`
at `x = 2.5` slope is `-ve`
