In a stationary wave all the particles

A

in the region between two nodes vibrate in same phase

B

on either side of a node vibrate in same phase

C

of the medium vibrate in same phase

D

in the region between two antinodes vibrate in same phase

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In a stationary wave all the particles in the region between two nodes vibrate in phase with one another, i.e. they achieve their maximum and zero displacement at the same time moving in the same direction as shown in the figure.

Hertz, in his historical experiment, produced stationary EM waves and measured the distance between two successive nodes. Explain how this measurement enabled him to show that EM waves travelled with the same speed as the speed of light.

A transverse harmonic wave on a string is described by y ( x,t )= 30 sin ( 36 t + 0.018x + ( pi)/(4) ) where x and y are in cm and t is in s.The positive direction of x is from left to right. Is this a travelling wave or a stationary wave ? If it is travelling, what are the speed and direction of its propagation ?
