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, resppectively

D

negative y-axis and negative y-axis, respectively

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Dottet shape shows pulse position after a short time interval. Direction of the velocities are decided according to direction of displacements of the particle.
