The equation of a wave is given by `Y = 5 sin 10pi(t - 0.01x)` along the x-axis. (All the quantities are expressed in SI units). The phase difference between the points separated by a distance of `10 m` along x-axis is

A

`pi/2`

B

`pi`

C

`2pi`

D

`pi/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`K=10pi(0.01)=0.1pi=(2pi)/(lamda), Deltaphi=K` (path differnece)=0.1`pi(10)=pi`.
