The equation of the progressive wave is ...

The equation of the progressive wave is y =a `sin pi (nt -(x)/(5))` the ratio maximum paritcle velocity to wave velocity is

A

`(pia)/(5)`

B

`(2pia)/(5)`

C

`(3pia)/(5)`

D

`(4pia)/(5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(v_(P))_(max)=axx2pin`
and `v=(omega)/(k)=(2pin)/(2pi//5)`
= 5n
Now, `((v_(P))_(max))/(v)=(2pian)/(5n)`
`=(2pia)/(5)`
