Two particles of a medium are vibrating ...

Two particles of a medium are vibrating due to a wave propagating through the medium. If the phase difference between these particles is `(pi)/(3)` and distance between the particles is 10 cm then calculate the wavelength of wave.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the wavelength of the wave given the phase difference and the distance between two particles in a medium. Here's how we can do it step by step: ### Step 1: Write down the relationship between phase difference and path difference The phase difference (\( \Delta \phi \)) between two points in a wave is related to the path difference (\( \Delta x \)) and the wavelength (\( \lambda \)) by the formula: \[ \Delta \phi = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda} \Delta x \] ...
