On a wave pulse travelling towards left,...

On a wave pulse travelling towards left, there is a particle A as shown in the diagram. Referring to the particle A, choose the correct alternative.

A

Velocity and acceleration of particle is towards mean position

B

Velocity and acceleration of particle is towards extreme position

C

Velocity of particle is towards mean position and its acceleration is towards extreme position

D

Velocity of particle is towards extreme position and its acceleration is towards mean position

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Referring to the diagram right wave is initial position and left wave is final position. It is clearly visible that the particle is moving towards extreme position and in SHM acceleration is always towards mean position.
