A transverse wave is represented by `y=Asin(omegat-kx)`. For what value of the wavelength is the wave velocity equal to the maximum particle velocity?

A

`pi A//2`

B

`piA`

C

`2pi A`

D

`A`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
wave velocity `= n lamda = omega A `
`implies lamda =(omegaA)/(n)=(omegaA)/(omega)=2pi A`
`2pi`
